Jonathan is growing up so much! There are a few big things in Jonathan's life are big for him. This past Friday Jonathan learned how to ride his bike without the training wheels. This was a big thing, the previous Saturday Dave was around and we knew that he was ready and we talked him up to it. And he was excited, he started riding right off but didn't have the confidence. He wanted the training wheels back on, but we told him that wasn't an option, there was a big melt down. We both worked with him and ran around the cul de sac with him and then the following Thursday it clicked and he was so PROUD! And so were we, we have been going on lots of bike rides since then and we even went on the river trail for about a good 2 mile ride and he did great!! And he just loves it!
A while back We were at the mall, which is rare for us and we were at a store right next to build a bear, so we walked into the bear store. And after that Jonathan was hooked and he wanted one. They are very expensive for our budget, but we talked to him about saving, working, and using money he already had. Jonathan wanted it! So he worked hard, and he even found a coupon to use, 10 dollars off. I was very impressed. He was super excited and got a black bear with spiderman and a roar sound. Jonathan loves superheros, Lego's, and starwars! So it was right up his alley!
Jonathan started school a few weeks, and after the first day Jonathan wanted to know when he was going to learn how to read! I talked to him that there are steps that he had to conquer first. He loves to read and really wants to learn so bad. Jonathan works very hard in school, and loves to learn. So it makes it easier to teach him!
