Studious

This really is a great adjective to describe my oldest son Eden. I can't even explain how my heart swells with pride when I look at him. He's truly amazing. It's possible we will have to pay a PhD. to help him with his homework someday because what he will eventually be able to do will far surpass mine and Korey's abilities.
Take this Christmas break for example. The birthday gift he was most excited about receiving was the collection of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" books (thanks Grandpa and Brigit). He finished one each day until he had read the entire series (4 books). Oh, and did I mention that they are 5th grade level books and he is only in 2nd grade.

Can you tell Mama Bear is proud?! Here's the really funny thing; in order to get this picture of all four books, I had to get the last book out of his secret hiding place.

He actually hides books on the side of his mattress so he can "sneak" in some reading time after we put him to bed. Man, I love that kid!
