art contest winners
my little art contest winners.
wal-mart was having a sponge bob coloring contest this summer and the kids both entered. they were so excited, first prize was a $50 gift certificate. about 3 weeks after they turned in their sheets, we got a phone call. it was walmart asking for the mom of kristen. she had won 3rd place for her age group. we were so excited and called dad, etc. cole was quiet. not happy or sad, just quiet. he finally said, "when are they going to call me?"
i said, well, they might not call you. he was dumbfounded. there HAD to be another reason why he had not received a phone call. he truly could not conceive of not winning. he told me that when we went to walmart that day to get kristen's prize, he would have to ask them why they had not called him.
(self-confidence is NOT a problem for him).
about an hour the later, he got the phone call he was certain he would get. he had won 1st prize for his age group. the whole thing was such a funny insight into how he thinks :)
