Catch up on Little C
I realize that my child is growing every day. He's almost out of Kindergarten and on to 1st grade. I am awfully impressed with his math skills (of course, I have no one else his age to compare him to), but this weekend, grandpa gave him a pocketful of change and told him he could keep it if he could count it. And except for a little help adding up the quarters, he did great. He managed to count out $1.50 in coins! Woohoo!
In addition (no pun intended) to adding quite brilliantly for his young age, he's been quite creative in his expressions. Last week he said "Mom I love you more than bean burritos." and this morning when I tried to wake him up for school, he rolled over and said "sock monkey." I often wonder if it's because he's a guy or if it's because he's a kid, that I just don't get what he's talking about. Or maybe, I'm just not a young and hip mom and "sock monkey" is some slang? Hmmm.
Oh, and we're so proud of him because he's got his new belt!
Here he is with T, his partner in crime (they're in the same class and played soccer together too!)
My mood: proud and amused and have a weird cramp
