Ian

Ian is now 9 years old and will be in 3rd grade next year. His favorite part of the school day is recess and gym. His favorite academic subject is math and I am often blown away by how quickly he picks up new, difficult subjects. He loves to play and watch sports. His favorite is football, but instead of being a Miami Dolphin fan like his dad, he is a Minnesota Viking fan. It was Atlanta Falcons, but somewhere during the 2009 season he switched. Ian plays flag football, baseball, and tae kwon do.


He is also involved in cub scouts. This year, Ian and Chris got to spend the night on the Lexington. They both had a terrific time looking at all of the planes and seeing the ship.



Ian continues to be enthusiastic about the things he loves. He loves to listen to music and thanks to Band Hero has moved beyond Dog Train. He loves that he can go on my iphone and download songs. I am not sure he really appreciates the joy I had as a child of carrying a walkman around with a case of tapes. Ian can be very helpful now with Shane by watching him and keeping him out of trouble.
