Gavin is almost done with his school year - only 4 weeks left of classes. While he hasn't quite met the academic goals for the year set by the school, which are about a year ahead of the public school system, he has had an awesome year at school and has met the 3 goals I had personally set for him to achieve by the end of the school year:
1. Be able to interact with peers at an age appropriate level (I didn't expect this would be a problem).
2. Become potty trained (took way longer than anticipated).
3.Improve his speech to an age appropriate level.
Gavin has enjoyed playing with his classmates this year and has had no discipline issues (except one time he got in trouble for crawling under a table). Gavin is wearing underwear exclusively during the day (except on a long car ride - just in case, or during a long play session at Burker King - I don't trust him yet). Gavin's speech has improved dramatically over the school year. It's really quite amazing. He speaks in full sentences now, and most of what he says is understandable. He is currently in a questioning phase where he asks "why?" or "what's that?" all the time.
Tuesday Gavin and I went on a field trip with his school to pick strawberries:
