...EmmaLi Taghan! Yeah! Woo Hoo! Hurray! Yippy! You're the best!
Yes my friends, EmmaLi was Cubby Clubber of the year for her AWANA program. Last night was the end of year AWANA awards program. I knew her class was going to sing the Cubby song because I was the one who taught it to them. I had no idea that my baby was Cubby of the year.
All of the children in her class receive certificates of achievement for completing the Cubby book. Each of them received a metal for an individual strength they possess. After they completed their part of the program, they all sat down. Then the Sparks did their part of the program, followed by the T&T's and then the Treks. They then bestowed the teacher their service pins and a special award for Commander Dan. EmmaLi loves Commander Dan. He even came to her birthday party. He left the after the first half of the year. He accepted a pastoral position in another church. That man was so moved at his special award (which by the way he started a few years earlier) that he was in tears as he spoke to the group. Then came the Clubber of the Year awards. One clubber from each age group was selected to be clubber of the year. The criteria used to select the Clubber of the Year was attendance, number of verses learned, class readiness, and most Christ like. While I think she deserves every award ever created, her teachers chose her to recieve this special award. She recieved a trophy and special recognition from the Interim Pastor of the church. It was really kind of sweet too. He called her name for Cubby Clubber of the Year. She walked up and he said, "Well, I don't know this little girl but if she is half as sweet as she is cute, she definately deserves it. Did ya'll get a look at her!" LOL She has another one wrapped around her finger.
Here are some pictures of the evening.
