The Written Word

This happened yesterday, but deserves its own post rather than being added to a Photo Friday post. We went to school yesterday for a visit and we were waiting in John's room for him to finish at an assembly. Max's favorite thing to do in our classrooms is to write on the whiteboards. I asked him to write his name and lo and behold, HE DID IT!
The "x" is sideways and looks like a "t", but it's pretty good!

On another Maximo milestone, we think afternoon naps are a thing of the past. Lately if he's taken one, he stays up talking in his bed until 9:00 (or even 10:00, one night last week). Let's just say this is later than my bedtime most nights. I'm sure he'll be taking a few this summer especially since we're traveling half way round the world and back again, but, at almost 4 years old, this era is done! In August, he'll start full day school, so this is probably good timing.

On Tuesday he has his interview for the Building Blocks Program (the 3 year old program) at Canadian Academy. He's growing up so fast!

And yes, he insisted on wearing the flower barrette in the pictures with Lola yesterday (in the new banner pictures).
