I have noticed people taking last day of school photos and decided I needed to do it too. Except I wasn't home when Mac got back from school today so I asked Sean to make sure it was well documented. Here is Mr. McIntosh O'Kane Jordan before and after his 6th grade year...
He looks smarter, doesn't he?In all seriousness though he has worked incredibly hard this year. Everything is an effort with him. Even a simple spelling test takes hours of preparation, yet he plugs along. Sure there were meltdowns, but every single time he came out of the haze of stress and frustration and got the job done.
He is the type of person who is trying to get Thursday's work checked off the list by Monday. I am continually amazed by his work ethic and am dedicated to doing every last thing I can think of to preserve it.
Now it's time for summer. Sure there will be a little school so that he can review and maintain what he has learned, but then there will be the good stuff too. Annual Griffin family water games, the return Fun Fridays, a 14th birthday and a big road trip.
Cannot wait for lots of summer fun.
