What kind of mischief have you gotten yourself into
recently? We thought you broke your finger during soccer. But you just jammed
it really badly. Then we thought you might need stitches as you face planted
during soccer. But Boy Toy was able to get the bleeding to stop. You are still playing soccer. You will NOT RUN
during soccer, but as other parents have pointed out. You are always “in the
way”. You have been managing to get yourself in the other teams way almost
always. I think hockey has helped your soccer skills. Who’d a thunk it?
You have decided that you like cheeseburgers, and sausage
patties. You have tried asparagus and didn’t mind it. You are also drinking a juice
that has banana in it of course I didn’t
mention the banana until you told us that you loved it. You are also eating granola – that I make (we
can thank Auntie Moo for this). You are
trying another strategy for eating lunch during school. You are eating when
your friends are inline waiting to get lunch. THEN you talk. It seems to be
working. You are actually eating your lunch (a yogurt drink, some
carrots/broccoli, blackberries, a piece of ham and dried cranberries (granola
if I don’t burn it.) You seem to actually be eating, so we are happy.
You are reading “A
Snicker of Magic”, The homework machine #2, and something about a bed &
breakfast that involves aliens. I can’t say enough how lucky we are that you
love to read. I can’t imagine (yes I can I would be devastated) what I would do
if you didn’t love to read. We are
reading the 2nd Familiar book before bed. I ran into the youth librarian and asked him
about “George and the Big Bang” the 3rd book in Stephen Hawking’s
kid series. He didn’t realize it was a series and said he would keep an eye out
for it. So yea – we should be able to read that at some point!
You are still neck deep into watching Minecraft videos on Youtube.
You would rather do that than anything else right now. Boy Toy and I need to come up with some ideas
on how to prevent you from freaking out when you don’t do well/are asked to
stop. We will let you know when/if we come up with a solution.
The big news of the month? You watched A New Hope with me!
May the 4th be with you is a magical day! You liked the movie. You
knew pretty much everything due to playing Star Wars Lego’s, but you said it
was still a good movie. Now we just need to find some time to watch the first
Harry Potter movie…
You created a card game to play with your friends. You have
spent a huge amount of time working on it. Figuring out scoring, how different
cards react to each other, a game board. I hope your friends and you have fun
playing it. And even if they don’t, I think it’s pretty dang awesome that you
came up with the idea. You and your dad gave it a test play. He thought it wasn’t
bad at all.
For mother’s day this
year you picked out a GREAT
T-shirt
And some tea (Golden Monkey – Teavana)
Also some flowers. You were so tricky telling me you were
going out to get ice cream to keep me off the track.
Well that’s about it here. We will talk again next month.
Love ya
