Sometimes I wonder where this kid came from. He seems so unlike me. He is outgoing, immediately outspoken, hyperactive, extremely inquisitive. He wears his heart on his sleeve and his anger and frustration as well. He really likes math and really doesn't like language arts. He and his dad are laboriously reading the Hobbit together as a prerequisite to watching the movie. He is passionate and cares very little about what others think of him, though he does crave their attention.
Perhaps we have more in common than I'm willing to admit. And there are aspects of his differences that I admire and appreciate. His tender heart, for example. May God grow him into a man with whom He is pleased.
