This Boy

I had an observation day at Ty's school the other day. I got to go and just watch him do what he does in school, then I met with Miss Pati and Ty, and she tested him on a bunch of things, and then just Miss Pati and I chatted about my little boy. He is doing so well. The first thing I noticed was his confidence and that he is well liked by everyone. When Miss Pati was testing him I loved his confidence even if he didn't know the answer he just pretended that he did and would answer anyway. Miss Pati had asked him his parents name's and he told her that I use to be a Malacko, but now I'm an Olsen. She thought that was so cute and was amazed he knew that. Here are the comments Miss Pati had about Ty:

"Ty always appears happy and ready to take anything on! We have no concerns about any areas of ty's growth and development - social, emotional, physical -both fine motor and gross motor and intellectual - both language and concepts. He is comfortable with his literacy skills. His impulsiveness he can correct and can be redirected if not being appropriate. He is a great team and group player.

Strength's:

Ty's positive, happy personality
Ty's gross motor skills
Ty's confidence in himself and his abilities.

Area's needing strengthening:

Ty's impulsiveness at times
Ty's socializing when it is not an appropriate time"

I am so proud of my little guy. One of the things I really love about him is that he is such a hard worker. When McKenna came home from her dance class and had learned how to skip, Ty was determined to learn too. He practiced until he mastered it. Same with learning to tie his shoes. He also loves to help out with any chores, mostly one's we do outside. The other day when we got all that snow, he was outside with Ryan shovelling and worked the whole entire time until the job was done.

Shovelling our neighbour's driveway.

He loves to talk and we are never bored when Ty is around. He entertains us and makes us laugh all the time. We sure love you Tyger!
