End of the School Year

The last two weeks have been pretty busy. I was able to take off work to go to his field day. Although it was really hot, we were able to stay a little cool. Like many other schools they don't do the traditional races like they used to. His school grouped the kids into groups of three and let them do all twenty little races. A sixth grader was in-charge of each group and they also ran the events. After each race depending on how they finished, the kids got their cards punched noting if they got 1st, 2nd or 3rd. Zachary's favorite event was the basketball dribble. Zachary won that one by a long shot.



Yesterday we finished up our first T-ball season. Wow has Zachary improved. The biggest improvements came in his base running. At the begining of the season he would run the bases in a rainbow shape as to avoid the baseman. Last night he was running them straight and not afraid of the baseman. He knew that if he didn't run fast enough he would be out. If you asked him what his greatest accomplishment of the season was he would tell you getting three base runners out in one inning.



Zachary did get excited last week when he showed us his first loose tooth. He has brought home a library book called "Andrew's Loose Tooth" twice during the school year. He let me know that you got to put your name on the board at school when you lost your tooth. Well this week we were able to pull out his first tooth with little effort. Ok Mommy just cringes and gets nauseous just thinking of inflicting pain on my child trying to get the tooth out. Luckily I had help. It was his bottom right tooth.



Thursday was his last day of Kindergarten. I'm just amazed how much he has grown. From his first day of school with his Spiderman backback where we walked him into his classroom to his last day where I dropped him off at the daycare and he rode the bus.
