Finally, a great night at wrestling! It has been a bit intense lately with Javon and wrestling. He is the youngest in the class. There is one other 6 year old and all the rest of the kids are between 10-12 years old. At first the coach was really fun and easy on the kids, but now he's gotten tough which is good. But for Javon, who is a boundaries kid, he's been a bit confused on what happened to the fun, easy-going coach. The moves are very difficult and I'm tellin' you that I couldn't do them!!! There was actually 2-3 other younger boys that were attending but they have all dropped out. Victor is Javon's partner and really tries to help Javon out. It's cute. I love to watch them do their warmups. Javon is sweating and his face looks like a cherry by the time it is over, but that is his favorite part. He loves to run and run and run! I know this is so good for him. It is pushing him physically and mentally. Plus, he's not at church where everyone knows him. He's out in a new world with 10 other boys and a coach who is tough yet caring with the boys.
I meant to take my camera last night to post a pic. I'll try to remember next week.

They look so cute. I've never seen kids that young wrestle. my son would think that's so cool.
Thanks for visiting my blog. You asked about how I keep my four year old busy when I'm helping my daughter, I hate to admit that I sometimes resort to the t.v., but http://picasaweb.google.com/wenatcheemom/MontessoriActivities02/ this link will take you some photos of activity trays I've put together for school time.
Sorry, I didn't get the whole address in that last comment. Here it is
