Carter is in a stage right now where everything has to be perfectly fair. It's tough for me as a mother of four. I've seriously considered getting a food scale so I can show him that he is getting the same amount of desert as everyone else.
But I think the toughest part for him to understand is that there are different expectations for different ages. For example in third grade he gets homework daily, but Dawson in kindergarten gets homework more sporadically. That's not fair! First, I can't control the homework his teacher gives him and secondly when he was in kindergarten he had less homework too.
Look at that handsome boy! Each age/stage presents its own particular challenge, but it is wonderful to see him learning and growing.
Right now we are working on learning his multiplication tables at school. He loves to read and he is tearing through multiple chapter books a week. Now that I'm feeling better we are back to the library on a weekly basis. He loves Diary of a wimpy kid and Geronimo Stilton.
His current food crush right now is stuffed crust pizza. He was so upset when he found out that the stuffed crust pizza he picked out at thanksgiving was eaten. No worries, we can always get another one!
