Ok! This is awesome. Lily's team WON first place -not a tie this time-at the State Competition for Battle of the Books. And she won first place in the MathLeague Competition at her school this week for the whole eighth grade. There are about 275 kids in her class. Great job Lily! I am very proud of you.

And she finally got a small solo in the school play. Another exciting week for Lily finished off with an Orchestra recital Thursday and a dance on Friday.
