McKay has been a busy boy. He is improving his soccer skills and continues to enjoy playing soccer with many friends and Dad coaching. This year he received the Speedy Cheetah award because he is so quick up and down the soccer field. He proudly told me how he was such a fast runner and could go as fast as a cheetah, so this award seemed fitting. Soccer seems to be the perfect oulet for all of his energy.
McKay also recently finished round one of Kindergarten at Holy Love Lutheran School. I say round one because he will be repeating Kindergarten in the fall since he missed the deadline by two weeks. However, we are very happy and proud that he was accepted into the Challenge School where Carter goes to school. This seems to be the perfect fit for him since they will be using a first grade curriculum. I am also extremely happy to have them both at the same school - that should cut down my running around considerably. Carter is also happy to have him at his school and has given him all the inside secrets, "McKay, whatever you do, don't get the Chicken Gumbo for lunch...it looks like throw-up!" I have a feeling that McKay will do just fine next year.
We have been really happy with his year at Holy Love. His teachers, Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Aganon, have been wonderful and so willing to work with him on his level. They only had glowing things to say about McKay and he tells me that he already misses going there. For graduation they put on an end of the year program and sang a song for every year of the month. We got to hear dress rehearsals for about a week leading up to the program. :)
