Jeremy’s birthday ended up being celebrated over the course of a few days. I had a service unit meeting to be at on the evening of his birthday, and just everything else that was going on made it difficult to celebrate on his birthday. So we let him open his presents yesterday.
We sang to him and had cake today.
I really need to be better about celebrating birthdays on the right day. I did pretty well through all of the summer birthdays, then it just seems that every birthday since Adam was born, I haven’t been very well prepared for. I’ll get back on top of things eventually.
Jeremy is enjoying first grade. He is the king of goofy faces in our family. And in general, he is just a really good kid. His primary teachers tell us every week about how much they love having Jeremy in their class. They tell us about how reverent he is. His first grade teacher, Mrs Peterson, also tells us about what a good kid Jeremy is, and how much she loves having him. She was actually quite surprised when we told her that at home he is always making silly faces and when he doesn’t want to answer a question that we have asked him he says “Ba boo boo!” (I honestly don’t know where that phrase came from).
