Mr. Kai

It is hard to believe that Kai is 6 years old. He is growing up so quick- too quick. Here are 6 fun facts about Kai at 6 years old:

1. Kai still loves to swim and can spend hours in the water without a thought about it. He also loves to ride his bike and scooter and do anything outside.

2. Kai loves stories and books. We can motivate him to do many things with the reward of reading him a few chapters out of a big kids chapter book at night- right now he really likes the Magic Tree House books that grandma Whitney is loaning him from her 2nd grade class. Getting to play games on the computer is also a big draw.

3. Kai can be a BIG talker. We've had some conversations recently about how grandparents and parents like stories with all the details but other people are ok with shorter versions.

4. Kai has a huge imagination and can often be found directing some play scene or coming up with a plan to build or make something. I'm sure that the fact that he loves Phineas and Ferb may have some influence on this. Recently there seem to be some battle scenes thrown in the mix- crazy to see the boy in him coming out that way as we've been able to avoid much of that up to this point.

5. Kai is really great with his sisters. He likes to hold Zuri and is very close buddies with Rori.

6. Kai is sweet and loving and kind. Other kids seem to gravitate to him and I think that is why.

Kai is excited for all day kindergarten this year. I will miss him while he is gone but he will do great.
