Super Speller

I wasn't aware that spelling was one of Laura's super powers, but apparently it is. Yesterday she participated in the school spelling bee, which is comprised of the top twenty spellers in 5th and 6th grade, and she placed second after eight grueling rounds! She was disappointed that she didn't get the top spot, but handled being runner-up with all the grace she could muster (but don't EVER say the word "bolero" around her…).



Here are the highlights, so you can see her in action:



Great job Laura! We had so much fun cheering for you!
