WYATT

As promised!!! I needed to post about Wyatt and I am so glad it was right when I had something to brag about him!!! Wyatt is my quiet child... always been funny that his name rhymes with quiet... wasn't ever intended to be that way! Anyhow... in my mind he and Kyndall are a complete person split into two people. They are completely the opposite sides of each other. Kyndall is the one who has to be noticed and in the spotlight.... things come easy to her, so she doesn't have to apply herself too much, because good enough is enough to be noticed (can you tell that bothers her anal mother:)).
Wyatt on the other hand is quite happy to just be! He is always happy, loves to enjoy EVERYTHING, and is most happy when he isn't being noticed or acknowledged. He seems to be very aware of things around him and loves to help others or do kind things as long as no one catches him doing so. Wyatt is BRILLIANT!!! He is surprising sometimes!! But because he doesn't care what people think of him, if it doesn't interest him, he could care less about applying himself or even trying to do it for that matter. Especially anything school related, but mostly SPELLING! This year has been a tough spelling year for the kid. He could care less about practicing, or learning how to spell. So, because of the attitude, he has been missing A LOT of spelling words.... Then blames it on, "I'm just not as smart as Kyndall, but that's OK." So Andy (why do dads motivate so well) issued a challenge to get 100 percent. Of course Wyatt said he couldn't so why try... So Andy upped the challenge, and offered a WEBKINZ if he got it! Well that caught his attention! And guess what? He did it!!!! He did have to work hard, but he did it!!! We are so proud of him... the bummer thing was, they are not doing spelling words for the next 2 weeks, because of swimming lessons, but hopefully he will do it one more time, just because he knows he can!!! Way to go QUIET WYATT!!!! We love you!!!

Way to go Wyatt! That's awesome. We offer our boys money everytime they bring home 100% on spelling words.
