Forrest has grown so much the past year. Right now I'm struggling with what to say about our smart, thoughtful, goofy, stubborn, not-so-little-anymore boy! We love so much about him! We love that he knows nearly every country name, location, and flag in this world. We love that he can give us accurate directions to nearly any spot in Peoria. Yes, Forrest's visual-spatial skills and organization are amazing and astound us often. He's also turned into quite the reader over the past several months. His passion right now is Berenstain Bears books. He loves them! Yes, Forrest's mind makes us so proud.
We're also so proud of the kind and compassionate boy he is. He is so sweet to Jonathan, trying to teach him new skills and cheering him on as he learns. He often translates for Charlotte if I'm not understanding her. He thinks about his friends and enjoys his time with them. He still gives me a big hug before bed and usually wants me to lay by him for a few minutes. Then it's bittersweet to remember little toddler Forrest and little baby Forrest.
Yes, my Forrest is growing so quickly, beginning his Kindergarten year in his Montessori classroom. We're so excited for all he will do during the upcoming year.
