Random Shots

Here are some random shots from the week:

I have a couple of wiggly boys in my classroom and my student teacher shared a picture of a wiggle chair she saw in action at another school.  I showed the picture to Chris and he made me a custom chair.  This was a huge help for this student and it worked great!  Thank you to my amazing and talented husband for making this.  Now, we need another one!  

Colson flourished in swimming lessons this session at the YMCA!  He was tentative and unsure the first week.  He didn't like to dunk his head and was scared to jump off the side (because he had slipped last time.)  Well in 6 weeks, Colson's confidence surged.  His swim teacher was fabulous.  She was so positive and taught them in a way they could relate and understand.  By the end of the session, Colson was jumping really far out the his teacher, floating on his back, dunking his head without holding his nose, using the kick board independently and beginning to swim on his own!  What a difference!  We are so proud of him! 

The third graders at our school received a visit from the Enumclaw Kiwanas where each of the students received dictionaries.  This was a huge hit for the kids.  (And it meant a lot to the three older gentleman, too!)  The three classes were very well behaved, asked good questions and then were incredibly excited for their dictionaries!  

The sun has been peeking out here and there even though we've had mostly rain this past month.  The boys were able to enjoy some outdoor time and decorated the driveway with chalk!  It's the little things!

The boys playing at the new property with the neighbor boy, Collin.  Collin and Cannon played for hours Saturday.  I think they will be good friends.  

Colson was a tired boy after a long day.  He fell asleep about 30 seconds before pulling into the driveway!  

Enjoying every moment.
