What did I just call her? This week at the Northfield Montessori, my daughter Rylie has been named "Star of the Week" (S.O.W).

I recall in 2nd grade the teacher choose a pupil each Friday as the star student of that week. They would get a card with some candy affixed and was allowed to be the first at doing something. I also recall being one of the last to receive this honor later in the school year. I figure every kid had to "win" once and I must have been one of those "this kids turn" winners.

Well, this is Rylie's 2nd time as Star of the Week. So, she must be doing something right.

This honor includes:

• Being first in all lines.
• Bringing either a game, movie or book of choice each day to share.
• Bring in treats on Friday for everyone.
• Wearing a custom made star necklace around their neck all week.
• Bringing in photos of the family and a brief profile for the wall.
• And of course, ton's of gushing and pampering.

Congratulations Rylie. Take a bow!
