Logan received an "Award of Excellence" from his school's PTA and an "Award of Merit" from the area PTA for a story he wrote for the PTA Reflections contest. Way to go, Logan!
Here's the budding author's entry, complete with second grade spelling and mechanics. :)
Beauty is… my family

I think my family is beautuful. A year ago my mom and dad went to China to get my littel sister named Sarah. Befor Sarah my family had no sisters just four brothers.
My mom and dad left to get Sarah on Halloween. I was sad wen they left. My grama came to stay with me and my brothers.
We did fun things with my grama like playing miny golf. At night we lookt at pichers of Sarah and my mom and dad on the computer . My favret pichers were the pandas at the zoo in China and my mom feeding a baby tiger a bottel.
One time we even talkt to my mom and dad on the computer like a phone.
After two weeks my mom and dad brout my littel sister home. We went to Mcdonolds and then to the airport to see them get off the plane. When I sow my mom and dad and Sarah I felt happy and I thot that Sarah was beautufl.
Now my family has four brothers and one sister and it is beautufl.
