My Penguin Pal

Finn's class takes turns every week being the class Penguin Pal. This is where a student creates a poster with pictures throughout their short little lives of their family and memories. Finn's last name being at the end of the alphabet, he had to wait towards the end of the year to do his presentation. Finn had a lot of input on his poster, but, of course, I gave him a little direction too. Finn was very particular about picking pictures that were funny but not too embarrassing. Finn was so nervous before his presentation the morning of and told me that he had stage fright.
He did such a good job on his presentation, but he wasn't his usual confident self. His classmates take turns asking him questions like "What is your favorite food or movie". Finn was stumped on a few questions, but it was so cute. Then, his class got in a circle and took turns giving him compliments. Too stinkin cute. Rick and I had to give him compliments as well. I had a hard time picking just one and gushed on all of his sweet qualities, while Rick bragged on the fact that he rarely complains about anything.
