Geoffrey finished his second year at Hilltop. His two best friends there are Phillip and Radley. The three of them are - interesting together. THey have lots of adventure and come up with their own creative ways to play - although sometimes they can be kind of mean to some of the other kids. (Sick cakes, anyone?) Still, I'm glad they have each other, because they are learning together how to get along and be social.
Now that it's summer, Geoffrey's been very busy. We went camping in Sequioia and Geoffrey had a great time splashing rocks in the creek, helping us set up the tent, fishing with Grandpa Gary, and hiking with Grandma Patty and Grandpa Bobby. He caught his very first fish and declared it the best fish he ever ate!
He took swimming lessons at Marina High school with Phillip. It was a two week class that met every day. He was in the Preschool 3 class, and I think he would have even been ready for Learn to Swim 1. He and Phillip had the class to themselves, which was nice, and it was a good experience for him. We went to the free swim a few times and he jumped off of the diving board!
He's also doing the summer program at HIlltop for two weeks while I teach summer school. SInce he's done with Hilltop I was hoping for one last Hilltop experience for him with Phillip and Radley. His regular teachers - Alissa, Sarah, and Lynette, are working the camp too, which is awesome.
He also got to go to Katelyn's summer class with MIss Lisa - he got to be a helper, so that was fun.
Geoffrey is an awesome five year old/ He's very creative and funny. He can be super sweet and caring with Katelyn. He'll often say things like "Come with Big Brother."
He is majorly obsessed with Star Wars right now, which stems from his obsession with Angry Birds and Angry Birds Star Wars. I won't complain - he loves Star TOurs now! (SPeaking of which, he also rode Matterhorn twice!)
We're still working on listening, on being kind, and on sleeping in his own bed all night.
He is so fun!
