Finn has a student teacher at his school and she is writing up ordinary moments in the moments of the kids at school.. I think I'll give it a try.
My Zoe ordinary moment:
Zoe cleaned up the toy room when I asked her to, without help.
perhaps not so ordinary moment
After dinner Zoe, Finn and I went out to the park, Zoe on her skates, Finn on his bike.. at the end of our hill, Finn did so good managing the hill up to the intersection.. but for some reason Finn kind of couldn't stop or wouldn't stop at the cross walk and it was close to the intersection.. I started to shout, to grab.. I was holding onto Zoe on her skates, trying to keep her balanced.. Zoe grabbed Finn's bike and stopped it. We worked as a team. Phew
My Finn ordinary moment:
Finn is a good listener.. I only have to tell him something once and he gets it, remembers it, repeats it.. today I watched as he biked on his own (with training wheels) and he kept to the high sides of the drive ways.. something I told him on our last outing... he did it on every drive way, smooth and even going.
