All my kids have participated in the NOVA program. It is a drug awareness program put on by the Orem City police department. All the kids had to write a talk about what they would do to stay off drugs. Nikki got picked to read her talk at NOVA graduation. I have to admit I was really impressed with her speech. You easily forget how much your kids are growing up day to day. She is growing into a great young woman.
The next week the 6th grade had a mock trial. Nikki was a defense attorney defending the witch from the Hansel and Gretel story. The parents got to come watch and be a part of the jury! I had to help convict the witch (Nikki wasn't very happy with me) but it was fun to see the kids be a part of this process. Nikki is loving 6th grad and it is going by very quickly!
