Turned 8 last week.
My multitalented boy-genius and boy-wonder, my little hero, my tries-to-be-honest food-critic, my tries-not-to-complain-too-much little helper, my angelic-voice guy-sebastian-esque singer, my little rascal, my little challenger-of-my-authority, my little cheeky imp, my heart, soul, pride and joy...
He requested a pool-party with some friends, which was easily granted. His other request was TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES. Looked delish and tasted even better! I threw in a good dose of Oreo's Cheesecake too - although I was rather disappointed with the "sub-standard" ingredients KK has to offer (Thanks to my new friend, Terri, I will visit a shop she recommended). Still it wasn't too bad altogether! Spent hours the other day digging through boxes to get my utensils out - it was worth it! He thoroughly enjoyed his little pool party - its so easy to please him sometimes, yet other times he drives me mad! Still I wouldn't change a thing about my little hero son!
His unabashed confidence still astounds me. We visited a church on Sunday and during one of the segments, the children pastor needed volunteers in teaching the lesson on TEAMWORK. There was a mathematical question/quiz that went along with the lesson. Who could answer the fastest got a chance to be 1 of 4 volunteers. He shocked us all by being the first! So he made his stage appearance. There were other mathematical questions that followed and he answered them all. Needless to say, we were proud of him and so bemused when the pastor asked "What school you go to? The other parents would like to send their kids there!!". Though gifted by nature and further nurtured by the Montessori system, my son is currently homeschooled and this Mom couldn't be prouder; basking in the glory of a now known, the Little Math Genius!
