On September 3rd, my Zachary began his second grade career. He is in Mr. Johnson's class this year. Yesterday, after Day 2, he came home and said, "Mommy, second grade is much more difficult than first grade." I made appropriate noises of understanding and he said, "Well, it is harder but also more interesting." I think he'll do great if he can just nail down a second grade girlfriend (he's had a different love interest each year of school) and if he can figure out who is going to be his special in-class buddy this year. Zachary is the type of kid who really likes to have one very good friend. I'm not at all worried about his academic ability, but I do worry about him socially. He's so tenderhearted and just gets his feelings hurt so easily. He's a worrier...hmmm, wonder where he got that particular trait. My sweet Zachary:

How sweet that your three guys made you a special cake! Hope your day was terrific. Your Zachary sounds like a terrific kid, Andrea. I'm sure he'll do great in second grade! Have a nice weekend -- :)
Is it a first born trait to be sensitive and enjoy only having one special friend???
2nd grade---seems impossible that Z could be this old!!
Hope you had a great birthday. The cake looks yummy! Sweet boys!
