Under pressure

Julia was chosen to represent her school's Academic League (4th and 5th graders). Even with weekly after school practice and extra homework, Julia is so excited to be part of this team!

Yesterday was the first competition and I'm not sure who was more nervous- me or Julia. Her team did so well and won! Julia answered 1 right (and knew many of them) for her team. She was so hesitant to buzz in first, for fear that she was wrong. You could see her little hand on the buzzer, just wanting to buzz in! We are going to work on her confidence for next time. We are so proud of you Julia!
Julia's good friend and teammmate, Imani.

Jackie (Chet's mom) and the family were all there to be Julia's personal cheering squad!
*Notice Julia's collection of good luck necklaces. :)
