Tyler starts Kindergarten on August 4!! Yay Tyler. Along with "not being the baby anymore" he has a lot of growing up to do. One thing daddy and I are looking for on the Internet are age appropriate chores for a 5 year old!
I really can't wait to find the right list and put Tyler to work. He will of course earn money for his piggy bank and bank account BUT it will be harder than ever for Tyler to make this transition.
Over this last weekend, daddy wanted to test some of Tyler's kindergarten skills. He asked Tyler to count to twenty. Tyler counted ONE, TWO, THREE, and so on until he reached twenty. But he skipped thirteen! Every time daddy would ask Tyler to count to twenty, Tyler would skip thirteen.
So daddy made Tyler write and say thirteen for two days. At the end of this long mind-boggling weekend, Tyler was asked again to count to twenty. Well he did it. I got a call from Kale while I was at work today with the exciting news. Daddy made a deal with Tyler that if he (at any point during this two days) could count to twenty without skipping thirteen that he would take him to Mickey D's for a treat.
Here is the evidence supporting this triumphant day for Mr. Tyler Shank (and daddy too!!!)
