So this has been yet another exciting week in the Gustafson house complete with soccer on top of our already busy schedule. Hayden started soccer on Monday and will continue this every Monday night for the next 6 weeks. While it may not be the most organized sporting event he has participated in, he loved it! He told me that he can't wait for the next time he gets to play soccer.
A-K is AWESOME! Hayden absolutely loves it. Of course the only information we get out of him is that he eats a snack and has recess everyday. haha. But this last week I was able to go to an A-K curriculum night where Hayden's teachers were able to sit down with the parents and go over the curriculum for the year. This is where I got the real information. So now I can ask appropriate questions that Hayden might actually answer. His teacher also told me that Hayden follows directions. That made me one proud momma :)
This week he got to go to the library. He was so excited that he asked me to read the book he picked out as soon as we walked in the door.....so I did :) Tuesday was Hayden's day to bring a snack as well as bring a toy (or something you like) in the sharing bag to show all your friends at school. Hayden picked out colored goldfish for his snack and he picked out his puppy to show his friends. Funny story behind the puppy. Hayden decided that he didn't want to bring in anything too "cool" because he didn't want everyone playing with it, but he thought his puppy would be safe. lol Anyways, he ran to catch the bus that morning after Ted reminded him to bring his snack and sharing bag. He brought it on the bus, and that is were it sat.....the Whole day! Poor little guy forgot it on the bus. Oh well, he got to share about his puppy the next day.
AWANA is AMAZING! It started 3 weeks ago already and Hayden is loving it. Although he has told me that he misses the snacks at the old Cubbies. So far he told me that he is in the Purple group and that he gets to play in the gym. He even gets to see he cousins, even though Reuben and Hayden are in different classes.
This week I had the opportunity to listen to Captain Mark Kelly speak at the St. Luke's PMR retreat. Captain Mark Kelly is the astronaut husband of US Rep. Gabrielle Giffords who was shot in the head at an attempted assassination. It's encouraging to hear success stories from therapy.
That's all for now!
