Jordan

Jordan turned 10 in February. Hard to believe it went by so fast! He is an amazing kid! He has such a willing heart and a gentle spirit about him. He is as smart as his dad and makes my head spin how fast he catches on in school. He is at the end of 4th grade and doing algebraic equations. He loves to build amazing things with legos and read books. He is always spouting off something new he's read about or asking questions i have to say, 'hang on one minute' to answer as im running to google it! :) He gladly helps out with his sibling whenever asked (or not asked) He is always expressing how glad he is that he has a brother and a sister, which makes me very happy since he is the oldest! He has a best friend now named Wyatt, who is almost 10. They enjoy going to the pool together or just hanging out building legos and playing Nerf wars for hours! They are alot alike, quiet thinkers. This year Jordans health has been better than ever. Our family went grain free for his health as well as mine and everyone has benefited. Jordan skin is clear for the first time since he was 4 and he has had no asthma or allergies since. Although he still carries an inhaler because he remains allergic to some cats (not sure yet why some and not others) he hasnt had to use it because now that he is older he is aware and can sense cats and will leave a building at the first sign of breathing trouble so it clears up on its own.
Now that he is ten a whole new world has opened up for him and he gets to go with Dad and Grandpa and do more manly stuff :) which he is enjoying.  Zane was not thrilled at first at being left out but now he knows when he is older he gets to go too and has figured out that means he gets to be the oldest when Jordan is gone. He gets to have more time with me and he is learning to be an even bigger help around the house. When we go out shopping without Jordan he actually loves it and the fact that he can be Niko's oldest brother and do Jordans jobs when hes not there. He takes his job very seriously!
