Ryan

Ryan has been busy this year changing in lots of ways. He is growing physically, which is the most noticable change. He is becoming quite a conversationalist and planner. If you take him on in Nintendo 64 Mario Cart you will more than likely get hit by turtle shells, lightening bolts and probably come in second behind him. Then, you will hear each move he used against you play by play after you have completed the race. He is passionate about everything he does. His biggest accomplishment in school is being the first one in the class to join the "100 club" which he would tell you is the club you are in when you can count to 100. He is a numbers boy and his teacher Mrs. Meyeraan can vouch for that. She tells us that when he is at school it is all about the boys. He loves playing with his friends that are boys doing boy things (which is understandable when he has so much girl stuff at home with his sisters). He is incredibly patient as a big brother and Zachary is really blessed. There are many times when they are playing when Ryan has to change (or totally abandon) his original plan for something that is quite different but acceptable for Zachary who is good at making demands. We are very proud of him!
