Logan update

Logan is in 5th grade and goes to the same school as Kellsie goes to. He was worried at first, because he didn't know anyone and it was a middle school. But he found out that they have a flag football  team and life was good. At first since he was a 5th grader he was 2nd string defense. But by 2nd practice he was moved to 1st string defense. Now his dream is to play quarterback in the NFL and then go one to own his own team and stadium. So this defense thing was ok, but not what he wanted.

Then the quarterback asked for Logan to be put on offense. The rest of the season he played offense. Protected the quarterback multiple times, interceptions and he caught the ball too (I am sure there is a cool football term for that, but I don't know it and I don't want to ask Jeff). 

As it turns out the person at school who signed them up had put them in the wrong age group and they ended up playing high school teams. So they lost every game, but they sure looked good! Logan can't wait til next year when he can play against kids his own age (and as a mom watching, it would be nice not to see my son block against a kid with facial hair and tattoos).

Logan is the highest level in Math . They moved him up to 6th grade math, but he really wants to go to 7th grade math. His teacher is teaching him on the side, so he can move forward. Logan just learned that he LOVES to read. He only liked to read before, but now he is on fire. He is working on the Percy Jackson series along with reading one book for class and the Rangers Apprentice for a book report. It's getting expensive to have all these readers in the family.

Logan is great with Zofia. When she gets upset he sings "We are Family" and she quiets right down. Its nice having all the helpful siblings to love and care for Zofia.
