Growing up FAST

My little boy sure is growing up fast!  Every time I turn around he is taller, smarter and missing more teeth.  He is getting close to the end of second grade!!!!  I cannot believe he is that old.  This school has flown by.  I guess that happens when you have a great teacher who sees the your child for the wonderful person that he is.  He received an award this month for excellent effort.  This is a huge accomplishment for Jeremiah.  It shows he has had a lot of growth.  He often receives awards for academic excellence as academics come pretty easy to him.  He knows he doesn't have to put forth a lot of effort so sometimes he doesn't.  This year has been different he has had a teacher who has challenged him and pushed him to really work hard to create his best work.  We are so proud of him and the effort he has put into his work at school this year.

He has been busy with Basketball, boy scouts (he still has a year... but my friend lets him come..shhh), piano and reading.  He has been practicing Zipp-a-dee-doo-da and Star Spangled Banner on the piano.  He also taught himself We Thank Thee oh God for a Prophet. He still loves reading every night you can find him with Super Fudge books or Harry Potter.  He  says football is next but Matt and I are not sure about that....
