We have officially entered the weird zone of having a pre-teen in the house! It's crazy how much he has changed and grown up this year. 6th grade- in the middle school. Middle school has allowed him to become involved in so many thing: cross country, math league, speech, band, choir and robotics. He even had his first school dance- so awesome and scary! He was on the A honor roll during the first semester! He has big plans to go to MIT. Keep up the grades and it will help!
Turning 12 is a big deal! He only has one year left and he really is a teenager! When did that happen? This year has been full of school activities and friends. Being social is a big part of his life now. (we did end up getting him a cell phone this year also- its been nice for communication for picks ups and what not) Axel is officially taller then me and his shoes have grown 3 sizes this school year alone! He is hot and cold with his personality right now- way more then he ever was. I have to remind myself to take a breath and give him space. I remember being his age and I get it- there is a lot to figure out. I love the talks we have in the evening. He is becoming such a cool interesting person. (he even put his head on my shoulder while sitting on the couch the other night- I could have sat there all night :) sure doesn't happen very often any more.) Happy Birthday (Jan 5th) to my first born. I'm so proud of you!
