Stephen is starting 3rd grade - wow where did the time go? He is so smart that it can be fustrating to see how hard he is on himself. Just the other day this teacher did a math contest and he won multiple times. He was able to win no homework tickets. He won two and his teacher had to say nicely that he couldn't win anymore. He understood but was a little upset. He gets mad when he doesn't do well. So of course we have to tell him to relax and it will be fine.
He is also playing basketball and doing really well. He loves it. He has had one game and did well. There was a few parents that were yelling at him to throw the ball but we told him to not pay attention. He needs to work on looking at everything around him but for his first game he was great! Some parents just need to relax because they are 7 and 8 year old playing.
He is making new friends too. He wanting to venture out a little more and be on his own. For the first time I asked for a hug and kiss and he got embarrassed and said - "Really mom, here?" I said okay and understood. I was sad but I guess it's not the end of the world.
Stephen is happy that Drew is now wanting to play with him. He calls him Vevie all the time. Follow him around. Poor Stephen - this is now his nickname - two have called him Vive.
