Friends, this pandemic has sucked for us all, but I think maybe especially for Henry. He started at new school this year — his first new school since kindergarten! — virtually while most of his classmates were there in person. And once he did go back, he found it hard to adjust. He had a bad first grading period because come on, it's *hard* for a fifth-grader to have the executive skills he needs to make sure none of his work slips through the cracks. But he's been on a mission since then to do his very best, and as of yesterday, he was rocking all A's in his classes. And finally (finally!) he got to go to a friend's birthday party in person a couple weeks ago.
And he's got a smile that makes me so happy every time I see him. Here he is acting as the photographer for our little National Honor Society backyard photo shoot.
