This meant he got to take a favorite toy to school to show his classmates. He took his platypus. He also took in a picture of his family and a picture of the family pets. He so enjoyed talking about our cats that the teacher "couldn't get him to stop talking" until she threatened to take Star of the Week away from him. He LOVED being the center of attention. 
He also got to put a toy in The 20 Question bag. He put his green snake in the bag. He said his classmates were unable to figure out what was in the bag.
As I thought about Wesley being Star of the Week at school, I remembered a Bible verse that had been a MOPS theme one year. I memorized this verse because I needed the reminder to not complain about stuff. As I thought about Wesley and how much he enjoyed being the center of attention, I was reminded to pray that one day people will see the light of Jesus in him. Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold on to the word of life. Philipians 2:14-16
