This kid amazes us. He struggled in school kinder - 2nd grade. He had the most amazing foundation of teachers that continued to believe in him and we cheered him on too. After a diagnosis in 1st grade of ADD and ADHD combined, we saw major improvements. He learned to read in 1st grade and was such a happy kid. He told me the other day that his second grade teacher, Mrs.Duff, taught him to love books. That made me smile. With the combination of a good group of friends and 3rd grade teachers that believe in him, challenge him, and encourage him...this kid has soared! I got this picture of him walking through the hallway with his book from Mrs.Andrews a couple weeks ago and it made my heart smile! He has overcome so many obstacles and he keeps working hard and we are so proud. Nate is one super cool kid.
By the way, he writes “Nate” on l his school papers now...his new nickname, thanks to his baseball coach! I love it...fits him perfectly.
