1st Grade at China Spring ISD

Thomas has Ms Caldwell as his teacher at China Springs Elementary school in Waco, Tx. Thomas is enjoying his Health class and that he gets PE every day. He also enjoys the library books that he gets to bring home. In his las school, which was awesome Aristoi Classical Academy, the library was closed due to covid. 

 

U-turn

 When you were about 2 years old, we were driving in the car and Mom had to make a u-turn. 

Claire calls out to the whole car: U-turn!!

And you, Thomas, got super upset and yelled at her, “No, not U-turn! My turn!!”

Hero Highlight

 My hero is my big brother Matthew. Because he does nice things to me. He does good things without being asked. The first time or the second time. He just helps me out and I really appreciate it.

Gratitude 2020

 President Nelson asked us to write a gratitude journal this week on social media. This is the most social media I get: Youtube, blogger, Pinterest, and that's it. Being that I can't really post things on youtube, I decided to go for a blog. It won't be seen by many, but hopefully it will be seen by you in a time you need to see it.

My son, Tom. You are so loved. We love your crazy horse play, your intelligent questions, your desire to learn and so much more. 

Today I was remembering the times when you were about 18 months, maybe 2 years old. We lived in our house 2214 Blindlake Dr Houston, TX 7704. It was hot and all the kiddos were sent outside to play in the sprinklers or slip 'n slide. I remember seeing the kiddos take turns with the hose before you came around. But this summer, you better believe you wouldn't let ANYONE else touch the hose. You had to be 100% in control of it. And the most hilarious part about it? THEY LET YOU! You would scream and fight so the kids, without any influence from me, let you have it. You have always had this kind of tenacity. For better and sometimes worse, you try to dominate others. Sometimes it works out well. Others, not so much. You are a FORCE! I just hope you use that force for good, not evil! ;)

We love you, Tom. Always will. We are so grateful for you. Don't ever forget that. 

Out of control

 

 Tomma, now that you’re five, you need to start learning to master your temper. You received an essay today to help you remember that screaming and raging is not okay. You did a great job and I’m so proud of you.😘
