It took a lot of convincing to get Emmett to participate in the spelling bee. We bribed him with "lunch out anywhere you want to go", and so he agreed to let me sign him up.
No backing out now. :) He is all signed up and ready to go.
There were 9 participants in the 2nd and 3rd grade group. As each one dropped out and Emmett got word after word correct, we were on the edge of our seats!!! 
3rd place! He was so excited that he has already talked about going back to do it again next year. And, as his reward for good sportsmanship, lunch at Denny's -- his choice.
