Max's Last Day of School

6/6/08

Max's last day of school.  He carried out a little plant that he grew from a seed.  He was so proud of it.  We hung out afterwards so that Max could take pictures with his preschool buddies.  

Robert, in the blue shirt, is Max's favorite kid.  He is a year older, but they are still good friends.  His mom told us that he makes up stories about Max during soccer practice.  

The curly-haired blonde girl is Katie.  Max talks about her a lot.

Max had a great year with lots of fun field trips and a very cute class.  He really hit his stride about mid-year.  I think the speech therapy really helped him to be able to communicate with his peers and build stronger friendships.   He is still a big teaser, but he is good-natured about it.  That is why all the kids love him!

To celebrate Max's newly found freedom, we went to Max's on Western for their famous "Ghetto Fries". Fries smothered with Merkts's cheese sauce, bbq sauce, gravy, and hot peppers. Yes, it tastes just like you think it would.
