This December Max is turning 5! This year he was excited that the Gardner family was here to help him celebrate. He also invited his buddy Steve. There was quite a snowstorm out, but Steve managed to make it and it meant the world to little Max!
Loved having the Gardners here!
His favorite gift from Steve.
Well, what can I say about Max? I guess I'll share with you just one story. Max loves Steve. He sits next to him every week in church and is right by his side whenever Steve is here. Here is a picture of them after a hunt this fall.
Everyday while we drive to pick up the older kids from school we do a bit of school things ourselves to help Max get ready for Kindergarten next year. We count, sing, sound out words, etc. So this is how it went:
Me: OK Max are you ready to sound out a word?
Me: D
Max: (says the D sound)
Me: A
Max: (says the A sound)
Me: D
Max: says the D sound
Me: OK, now I'm not going to help you. Put it all together now...D...A...D
Max: (long silence)
Me: OK, I'll give you a hint. He's one of your favorite people.
Max without any hesitation: STEVE!!!
Me: D
Max: (says the D sound)
Me: A
Max: (says the A sound)
Me: D
Max: says the D sound
Me: OK, now I'm not going to help you. Put it all together now...D...A...D
Max: (long silence)
Me: OK, I'll give you a hint. He's one of your favorite people.
Max without any hesitation: STEVE!!!
We love you Max!! You keep us smiling!
