Scott's Year in Review
Scott loves his teacher Mrs. Sutherland and going to school. His teacher said he is always helpful and patiently helps his classmates. That made me so proud of him. He has such a good heart. He loves math and reading. He is reading at the 7th grade level and Harry Potter and Gregor the Overlander were his two favorite series. He got into the GATE program with 10 other kids in his grade scoring 99%.
He tried out for historian this year, made a great speech and had fun campaigning. He was so proud that he made it on the council and has really enjoyed his leadership role. It is perfect for Scott.
He continues to love swimming. He had a great 9 year old rec season going a 30.5 in free, 37.5 in back, 121 in IM and excited for next summer. He was competitive but ok with defeat. He had fun with his friends and had a lot of fun during the season.
He is excited to do track this upcoming spring for the first time. He got the running bug in P.E. tying for the top spot at the school with a 6:37. I think it will be a great sport for him to try out.
Scott loves hanging out with friends. Sometimes it gets rather annoying to hear, "I am so bored! Can I have a friend over? Can I go to a friends home?" He would rather hang out with his friends than his siblings so the struggle begins with him wanting to be with his friends over us. He is pretty independent on his bike. I watch him from afar at school as the girls take his hat and he chases them which is a whole new parenting era as well certain to never reverse.
Scott gets up every morning on his own to practice his piano. Such discipline and he is becoming a great little pianist. He performed in the primary program and did great.
Scott likes Scouts. He has great leaders and enjoys hanging out with his friends. He is doing odyssey of the mind this year and making new friends.
He really likes his hair long, spends about 5 minutes styling it in the morning that pretty much just looks like a 'perfected' hair sprayed mess. He loves wearing long socks, athletic shorts or pants and a t-shirt. Getting dressed up any nicer than that takes bribing. Nike is his brand of choice and instead of asking for toys this Christmas, he has asked for Nike shoes. And so an expensive shoe habit begins.
Scott is really helpful in watching his siblings. He is a great helpful. He is a peacemaker. He can get moody, when he is at his limit will yell but that usually takes much aggravating. We love Scott so much and are so proud of him!!
