Happy 6th Birthday, Skyler!

Skyler turned six on Monday, March 16th.  For his party, he decided he wanted to go bowling with the Edge's.  We had a great time at Rosa's, eating pizza while we bowled, then opening presents and having cake and ice cream.  It was Andon and Zack's first time bowling.  Everyone had a great time, especially the birthday boy! Even the adults showed off their bowling skills.:)

We are so thankful Skyler is a part of our family.  He is full of joy and determination, and has a service-minded heart.  He is an organizer and builder right down to his core, and he spends hours building.  He has enjoyed his Kindergarten year at home with mom, and  I have loved being his teacher!  The last two months, his reading has really improved, and he is officially a reader!  It is so fun to see him decode a word and realize he can read it by himself!  He also has impressive coloring, writing, cutting and art skills.  He will spend long mornings in his room listening to a book on CD while building a Lego set or building a castle with blocks, Trio blocks, and army men.  His favorite books to listen to right now are Magic Tree House.  His favorite friends to play with are his siblings:).

We love Skyler!
