Michael Update

Michael is waiting for Basketball season to start. Team tryouts with our city league are in October and games start in November. He is really excited this year because he can play basketball for his school in the spring. (I do have a t-shirt that has a basketball on it and says “Michael’s Mom” in rhinestones also.) Anyway, he has had some challenges in school this year. Seems that 3rd grade is when they start packing it on! And it didn’t help that he missed most of the first two weeks! BUT, last night he was working on his math with Mark. Since school started he has been saying “I can’t,” “I’m not good at math,” etc., but last night he was kicking butt. Really, he was coming up with answers faster than Mark. It was great to see. Mark is really good with him like that.

Tonight, after we finished reviewing spelling words, Michael and Major took a few minutes to watch Elmo together.
