Gil's Brain and 4 - 1 = 3

On Monday night Gil read the word: "Sun" all by himself.   I may have corrected the long-U sound he was making but that would have been it.

This morning, on the way downstairs, Gil said: "Daddy where are the other 3 summer tires?" He had noticed the one I had time to bring up yesterday, and pretty much did the math on the way down the stairs. (Although, thinking about it, it may have taken him all of the 10 hrs he was up in his room sleeping to figure this out.)  Still, not bad. 

Walk to School / Winter Play Day

Except for one block of riding in Uncle Greg's Can/Am Fun Wagon, Gil walked all the way to school today - 1.7 km.  "I'm tired but I'll keep walking," he kept saying.

Jo walked one block... and cheered him on.  Seriously a proper hip-hip-hooray five times for him on the last block.

It took us about 35 minutes.
