Meg has had a great week and is feeling the rewards of hard work. Last Saturday she earned a silver in her band quartet at the ISMAA contest. Hers was the only ensemble that chose to compete. She also earned a silver in the piano contest this Saturday. I think she may have been a little disappointed in that, but it was her first time competing. Plus she was the only student at Milford that competed in both events.
On Monday Meg played a fabulous game against Jimtown leading her team in scoring with twelve points. This is the 7th grades first victory of the season. The game was played in front of a supportive hometown crowd and I was thrilled that Meg chose to take that moment to shine. Doug and I have been working with her a lot on her point guard skills and it was awesome to see that pay off for her. Her sixth grade AAU coach was in attendance and remarked at how well she played.
Tuesday was the spelling bee and her success with that. On Friday Meg hosted a pizza party for her basketball team before they were introduced at the high school girls' game. She did a great job including everyone and the girls had a lot of fun.
After her piano contest on Saturday, she joined the ski club at Bittersweet for a fun evening. With all of the competitions of the week it was nice to know that she was going to just have a great time with friends. Life with Meg has been very busy lately, but I know she wouldn't have it any other way.
