Micah continues to be our little creative. He loves to build Legos, mostly his own creations, and has developed a love for drawing, coloring, and painting in the last year. I think Kindergarten really helped develop these loves. Also, since we've been school at home, I've noticed that his math papers take a long time when he's supposed to draw something to compare in size to another thing. When given an "open door" to creativity, he always walks in.
This past year, he also played basketball. I was his coach and he really seemed to enjoy it. Sports still aren't his first pick, but once he's out there he's competitive and coachable.
He's still super passionate, but it is fun seeing his maturity mold his passion. He has much fewer meltdowns and fits and is able to communicate much easier. He really notices if someone (or himself) is being left out and will call it out. He's super observant of people and cares deeply for them.
He and Eli have really taken to the outdoors since we moved to the country. They have been working on a house in the mound of dirt. A few weeks ago, Eli came up with the idea to make a flag to represent their home. Eli found some cardboard and talked while Micah got to work with markers. It's really fun to see them work as a team like that.
Micah really enjoys playing Legos and house with Haddie. They play similarly and if playing Legos they do their best to keep Lana away from their creations. House is a little easier to accommodate a little sister. :) This may have been the case a year ago too, but whenever they play house they play that their parents are dead and they are teenagers.
It's been really fun to see Micah and his heart for Jesus at school this year. He is pretty bold and his awesome Kindergarten teacher sent us a book of what the kids wanted to be when they grow up. His said he wanted to be a "Christian who loves his family". Me too, buddy.
