2nd grade

he wakes up with awful bed head when he takes a shower at night...going to sleep with 

wet hair= disaster.  

we should have planned better.  oh well.  it's character ;)

This little stud muffin is starting 2nd grade.

We're really anxious, nervous and excited for Tanner to start a new year.  He had a blast in Kindergarten, but 1st grade was quite a challenge.  He didn't like doing homework.  Everyday was a struggle and fight getting him to practice reading or putting any effort into learning. 

I understand!  It's hard to learn new things, it's overwhelming and stressful.  It takes a lot of work and practice to get good at something and he didn't want to practice so he hasn't become good at it yet. Actually he is GOOD, just got great or totally up to par where he should be.  I know it isn't fun...but we tried our best to make it fun and a positive learning experience for him.  But holy cow, he sure frustrated us!!  It sure tried my patience trying to figure out how to best help him while putting up with his whining and bad attitude.

We are hoping things will catch on easier for him this year.  Tanner is very smart!  I know he can excel if he puts forth the effort. Here's to hoping and praying that second grade is a success!!

 

Tanner is such a sweet heart.  He is so genuine, caring and has a great heart.  He's won the CARING award at school before and I consider that one of the best awards you can earn!

I know he'll appreciate his teacher, have fun with his classmates and friends, and have a great year.

 

Tanner we love you!!

We're so proud of you.

Mrs P's class.
