I realize that most kids learn to tie their shoes before they go into kindergarten. However, my son refused to take time to learn how to tie his shoes. For almost seven long years we have heard, "Mom, can you tie my shoe?", or "Dad my shoe won't keep tied..". But today everything has changed! Jaden can now officially tie his own shoes. Yes, one small leap for mankind, one giant leap for Ayala manhood. He is very impatient with himself and does not like for it to take more than once for a concept to sink in. But today, the wires connected and now Edgar and I have been informed that we are no longer needed when it comes to the shoe string. Not sure how I actually feel about one more step toward total independance, but awesome to see him so proud of himself.
On another note, Jaden will start flag football this weekend. This is the beginning to (hopefully) a long and illustrious football career. Gabby will start volleyball sometime next week. She is very excited and is going to be pretty good. (we think) So for now, that's all folks....

HOORAY for Jaden!!! (an itty bitty tear for mommy ... don't blink cause when you open your eyes, he'll be grown)

Just think, when you and Edgar get old Jaden will be able to tie your shoe strings!
Proud of the Jman! Charli's been trying to, but has a looong road ahead of her to get it! Tell Jaden we love him!
