The Parsons Road to Fame!!!!






This past school year has flown by again, but not without the Parsons boys "roundin' up" memories for us to "swing" through our thoughts in years to come. Kaleb had an awesome year in kindergarten and had the best teacher I think that has taught either of my children thus far: Linda Johnson. Mrs. J works hard in every area to make the kids learn, but have fun while doing it. The kids put on a rodeo in March that made the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas look boring!! The kids rode horses, rode bucking bulls, raced around barrels, and even had a world famous tractor pull! Kaleb was picked to lead the Pledge of Allegiance at the Grand Opening and he did awesome! He rode a bucking bull and raced in the tractor pull with a win over his competitor Cowboy Jack! I asked Kaleb on the last day of school if he was going to miss kindergarten and he said "yes". I was glad to hear that because I knew Mrs. J had really accomplished what she set out to do and that is to make the kids love learning!!!

Koby had an awesome 4th grade year as well. The highlight for Koby was when the 4th and 5th graders performed "The Jungle Book" musical. It was great to watch and Koby played his part well. You see Koby tried out for the main part, but did not make it. I asked Koby what he was going to be since he didn't make the part and he at first told me a rock. I must have had a puzzled look on my face because he went on to say that Mrs. Patty had to come up with more parts and the rocks was one of those extras. I could not help but giggle thinking about Koby being a rock. He told me that the rocks would get to dance! Well as time went by Koby had his part changed and boy did Mrs. Patty hit the nail on the head with this one! He was made a monkey! We had a choice of making his costume or not. Of course he chose to have his uncrafty mother make him his costume! He did look good I have to say, but I am a little biased when it comes to my little monkeys!!!!!
