Perseverance and Pizza

Ben has struggled a bit this school year with reading.

But the Pizza Hut Book-It! program was highly motivating to him to read 15 minutes a day and record it in a log.

Monthly he earned a coupon for personal pan pizza. He and I would go for a 'mother-son date' to the local Pizza Hut (yes! There is a Pizza Hut here!)

Today he was awarded a certificate and a medal for completing all six months of the program.

Ben's reading is better. And he has learned an important life skill of sticking to a task even if it is hard.
Keep praying for him as he works on his reading, writing, and arithmetic! Thanks!

Hebrews 12:11 For the moment all discipline seems painful
rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
