Stone Loves School!

Stone is LOVING school. He hasn't complained once about it, and looks forward to it every morning.  We recently had parent-teacher conference, and I know this may be a shocker, but we were told he is the class clown! haha. (in case you're wondering, that is NO shock). This kid gets people laughing. He came home one day, telling me about his girlfriend. I told him he didn't need a girlfriend, because he is too young, and he might hurt other girls' feelings. He said, "Well mom, I don't have one. I have two!" Oh boy. A couple weeks later, he told me he broke up with his girlfriend because she's "too bossy, and just HAS to be the line leader." Break up?! How does he even get the process?! Oh gosh.

Something I LOVE about him is his LOVE for life. Seriously. He soaks up every precious moment that he is blessed with. For instance, the other night, I walked in the bathroom while he was taking a bath, and I poured a cup of water on his head, as I was cleaning up the bathroom a bit. He sat their with his eyes closed, and a full smile on his face, just enjoying the warm water running down his body. Something so simple. Imagine the bigger things. He loves life and truly appreciates it.

He also loves riding the bus. LOVES it. So much.

Most mornings I make him lunch, but once a week or so, he begs to buy lunch. Apparently it's the fun thing to do at school. One day he bought lunch, and came home telling me how much he loves the hot dog. He explained why he didn't like my hot dog (I had no idea!!). He said I put a pickle on his hot dog, and I said, "but you love pickles!" and he said, "Yes, but not on my hot dogs. A pickle on my hot dog is like lentils and desperation." Like I said...class clown.

A couple times a week, parents are welcome to bring lunch for their children. I took Stone McDonalds one day, and he was the happiest kid. Cliff has taken him lunch, as well. We love this kid!
