A few days before my daughter Bell had an emergency appendectomy she won the spelling bee at her school. I was away from home and didn't learn about it until Sunday of last week. Didn't even know there was a spelling bee taking place. Bell hadn't mentioned it and had not been given a study book. She says they no longer give out books and instead direct kids to a website. Bell didn't study and won anyway. She was supposed to have her picture taken for the paper on Monday but she was in the hospital.
Her teacher sent a note home on Friday letting me know that the county spelling bee is going to be held in Dadeville this coming Wednesday. She wanted to make sure Bell had permission to go and compete in this second round.
Y'all keep your fingers crossed for my young'un. She always does us proud!
