An Update on Zev!

Zev is having another big week of news!

First, Zev has started to read.  He is really starting to sound out some words.  He asked my mom why her sewing machine said "push," and he read the word "play" at the park on a sign.  I decided to start working on this book with him. This is actually the book that I first learned to read as a little girl with my grandma.  I love trying to read it with him. 

Zev and Ari went to a magic show last Saturday. Ari thought it was pretty cheesy, but Zev thought it was pretty awesome.

( On a side note, Ari made Zev this fun lunch. )

Zev also started taking some new medicine this week. His teachers think it is making his mornings much smoother.  We are trying to all see how we feel about it and if there are any side effects.  In the mean time, Zev has had four good days of school in a row!

Here he is meeting fireman Brad. 

He was really excited about this, and he told me all about how he drew a picture of him in his journal. 

Zev also drew a picture of a pig and a cat in his journal this week.  We are all excited to see a picture of something that is not a machine!

Here he is in gym playing with a friend. 

This week in discovery, the kids learned about bridges.  

This is Zev working with two friends to build a bridge. 

I think it turned out pretty nicely. 

Zev has also been maturing some lately (having nothing to do with any medicine.)  He, as always, has his moments, but he is trying really hard. We are very proud of him.
