Zack turned 8!!!! What the what? He is a sneaky one for me being only 19 months behind Levi. It feels like we just did this baptism/scouts milestone and BAM, we do it again! He was so ready for it to be his turn and it did not disappoint. We celebrated on a Saturday after some basketball games. We went to the Rush and they LOVED it! They changed it up so the kids had a lot of fun with the go-carts and climbing wall this time. We were able to get Zack his set of scriptures that day too. He wanted the Habit for dinner. It was so fun celebrating this special kid!

Zack is an amazing kid. He has such determination at school, soccer, basketball, and when he likes the song, piano. He LOVES scouts. Counts down every time he gets to go. His best friend right now is Preston from school, well besides Levi. Those two are inseparable and seriously are like twins. They want the same everything! Zack has a favorite hoodie right now he wear ALL THE TIME. I have to wash it before he knows it is missing. He loves to play kindle, Minecraft, and rocket league. He has developed in interest in coding and plays some coding games on the computer when he finishes his work. He has struggled at a desire to read bigger books (he thinks he should be as fast as Levi....) but, we are working at finding different series that he would enjoy that are different from his brother. He seems to forget he is only in 2nd grade and not 4th like Levi. He reads well over grade level but it is hard to compete with brother all the time. He is such a smart kid and it is probably because of that competition with his brother. It is fun to see Zack growing and learning and developing his unique personality. He is a loyal friend to those he attaches to, but shy until then. He loves to play with those friends and gets invited often, which is fun for him! He is starting to be such a help with the younger kids that we are putting more responsibilities on him and he handles it well. Zack gets nervous about new things. New foods, new activities, new people. But, once he has tried them he masters them! He was so determined to figure out a Rubix cube and has it all memorized down to the last step or two. He has a math brain I tell ya. He just grasps it and understands it in his head more than I do! Zack does not like to be hurried. He is a take your time type a kid. He does not like to rush through chores, work, getting dressed, or anything...unless it is soccer, basketball, and scouts!!! We just love Zack and his sweet heart. He can be the sweetest and just surprise us with such considerate things. We are so glad he is in our family and how much he adds to it. Love our sweet boy!
