barrett: 105 months old



This heartbreaker is gearing up for his Valentine's Day class party.  How are we almost halfway through February already??  Even though it's been a bit chilly here lately, Barrett has summarily declared that he hates pants.  You know those funny memes showing college boys wearing shorts in the freezing cold snow?  Yep, I predict that will be Barrett.  While Barrett still loves his "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" books, he's now smitten with the "I Survived" series.  I've taken to it as well, since it allows us to discuss the history behind the stories.  We just finished "I Survived the Nazi Invasion, 1944."

And baseball has begun too!  Last Sunday, Barrett had his evaluation, where they have the kids catch, throw, and bat, so they can make sure the teams are evenly balanced with player talent.  Barrett went to bat left-handed, and the coach had him try right-handed, and he did better!  The coach called me over and said, "He says he's left-handed." Um, HE IS.  But turns out he may not bat left-handed!  


Batting left-handed first

Likes:  tennis (once he gets there), labeling his bookcase like the classroom bookcases, letting Ruby Dog snuggle with us while we read before bed

Dislikes:  tennis (before he gets there)
