Joshua is playing soccer this spring and he loves it! He's had 3 games so far, and 3 have been cancelled due to weather. His team has lost all 3 and with the exception of the last one (which was thankfully rained out before the half) they played really well. It's just so funny to watch inexperienced boys play soccer. They kick the ball then stop and wait to see where it goes. Of course, by that time the other team has gotten possession and we're back to square one. But, the name of the game is supposed to be fun and he's having a lot of that!

He is still excelling at spelling! He has only missed 2 words all year and 1 of those was because of poor penmanship (grrrr!). He just seems to get spelling and I'm very grateful. And finally, he's becoming more able to transfer what he's learned there to his reading. That was a long journey. We are hoping that 3rd grade will be a little better in that regard.
