Ok, so school started and I am just now coming up for air, ugh! This is a good ugh however!! We have been busy little bees, but happy, buzzing ~ full of honey ~ little bees!
I will start with Luke above……he just finished up with soccer. He was on the Cyclones team and it was a great season! As most people know I am slightly competitive and to see Luke finally out there on the field going after the ball with enthusiasm, desire and power, well it is most exhilarating to say the least. Since he was three, we have been wanting to see the determination in him and it happened…..more importantly, Luke liked it and wanted to WIN, he wanted to score, he had passion for the game!!! He “got it” and we loved every second of it!!!
He is in 1st grade and doing awesome! We love his teacher and I know without a doubt she is the perfect fit for him. His strengths thus far seem to be reading, writing, science/geography & math (numbers-minded like his Dad). He will pick up a book and just start reading it to himself, which is music to my ears;) Before, he would read it out loud (which was also music to my ears!) or ask me to read it with him, so to be doing this on his own is awe~inspiring!
He is still building legos like crazy, attempting to check-mate his friends, playing the piano and karate chopping everything in site. He has his first piano recital next week, so we are really looking forward to that. Alright, that’s Luke for now, he is one wonderful, amazing, delightful and charming young man;)
