Yes, that's right...Jackson won 1st place in the 4th Grade Science Fair, for his project..."Only The Shadow Knows". It was all about what happens to an object's shadow when the distance from the light changes. When Jackson told me, I just kept saying, "Are you sure we got 1st place?" I mean, I've never won 1st place in anything...let alone a 4th grade science fair project. (Did I say that outloud?). Of course I mean, Jackson won! Rick took the Pinewood Derby project and I took the Science Project...a little healthy competition! Rick keeps teasing me about how he and Jackson won a trophy and Jackson and I only won a ribbon. Then I remind Rick that our project didn't win for being unique...it won for being THE BEST! We celebrated with sparkling grape juice, plastic champagne glasses and chocolate cake! Whew Hoo--Congratulations Jackson. All that hard work paid off!!
