Took time out today, drawing a box of silly crayons. Something different for a change.

When I say he reads anything and everything, I’m serious. Ten year old Thomas reading The Romano Duo’s AARP magazine in 2014.
I went through old photos earlier today for a project, and this one made me laugh. He used to read the car manual every time he was in the car! 🤓😛🤓 … I love him so much! xoxo

“I’m so happy! What’s the highest level of Happy that exists?” -Thomas …..
Thomas was invited to participate in a Sumo Bot Challenge today. He doesn’t have the LEGO robot kit, yet the parent team leader and organizer made him a basic one to modify and use for the Challenge.
When it was time to leave she offered to let him borrow it until they need it again in July. His gratitude and joy was oozing from every pore. He could not stop saying how amazing this is as he has wanted one for years. So incredibly grateful to this wonderful mom!! xoxo

Found in the kitchen …. Seriously. I have no idea how many times Thomas has read this dictionary. He will be the grammar editor for all future books we write!
Fact books, dictionaries, encyclopedias, almanacs, pilot manuals, coding books, and the manual for our car! He’s read them over and over.
And this afternoon he said, “It’s weird how we idolize those who pursue their dreams.” I asked him why. He says it should just be the normal course that everyone takes. I have never heard it presented in this way …. and I agree. It should be the norm. xoxo
