In August as Kincaid got on the bus, I was nervous how he'd like school. Would he like going all day? Would he like his teacher? Would he struggle with learning? Could he keep up with the other kids? I worried for nothing. He loved it!! He got along great with all his classmates, loved his teacher, excelled at reading and math, and adjusted to no nap just fine!
Everyday he'd bring home a new book from the library. It was our nightly routine to read before he went to bed. At the beginning of the year we were reading to him. By the end he was reading to us. It's amazing to sit on the couch as a family and listen to him. My heart beams with pride and joy!
Even though Kincaid eats like a grown man, he didn't do as much growing and gaining as I thought he would. He only grew an inch and gained three pounds. His attitude has changed a little. He picked up phrases that aren't regularly used at our house. He is standing up for himself when it comes to other kids. He is changing from a little boy into a kid.
Every report card showed improvement. His teacher liked having him in class and he was kind to the other kids. What more could a parent ask for?
We are very proud of him and pray he continues on the path he's on. He's a great kid and we are blessed to call him our son!!
