Okay, I’ll admit that unless you are grandma of one of these boys, you'll be yawning or worse. But since their grandmas do read these too, this is for them. However, you're welcome to join the brag fest if you'd like.
Today is the 100th day of school. Samuel is beautifully decked out in a flag shirt with 100 star stickers, put on by his daddy!
You will see that Samuel finally has a new grin. His teacher finally pulled out that snaggly tooth last week. I did NOT have the stomach for it but and his daddy tried unsuccessfully. But the para-pro in his class has 2 boys and must be an expert. She extracted it and bagged it up for the “tooth fairy!”
Last week was awards chapel at school. Both boys received awards for running 10 miles and reaching that goal sometime in the first semester of school and they only get to run one morning a month. These awards are cumulative so Samuel could easily make into the 50-mile club. It is unlikely for Zach because this particular award ends in elementary school. We are proud of both of them but especially Samuel since he is so flatfooted that running long distances can become painful!
Zachary took another reading evaluation test this month. The scores were too high to measure on a grade 1-12 scale. He is a voracious reader but what makes me the most proud is his love for God’s Word. Almost every morning, I’ll find his Bible out where he has been reading before he went to sleep. He is currently the highest quizzer on the Bible club team at school. They are learning passages from Romans—KJV!

Your middle son and my Kaitlyn match with only one front tooth! Cute.
I love to hear about kids loving to read God's word.
