Go Dominic!!!!!
Dominic has had such an awesome week that I had to share with all of you. First my parent teacher conference went very well. He has as of now one A, 4 B's and 3 C's. This is a shock because he's never got an A or B I don't believe in all his school years. He's always been my average Joe and got mostly C's. So we were very pleased with the improvement he's had this year. All his teachers in CT. told me that they felt that he'd catch up one day and do really well and I guess they were right and this was his year. Hopefully his grades stay this well through the school year. I'd be so pleased. Regardless he is the best son anyone could ask for know matter what his grades are but that just makes it all the better. Tonight was his Banquet for football. It was a little unorganized at first but at the end the coaches gave speeches and handed out 6 game footballs to various players who stood out. Believe it our not Dominic was one of them. The coach was saying how in the beginning he couldn't run, couldn't block or tackle, he couldn't karoke (which is a exercise that they do). He simply said he was a mess and probably the worse player on the team. But, by game 5 he was the one makeing all the tackles on the field and just showed so much improvement all together that they had to give him a ball for "Most improved defensive player. The whole team cheered for him and patted him on the head. The coach also mentioned and made it very clear that he was only eight years old playing with 10-13 year olds "He's the youngest player on the team" the coach said, "And yet he played just as good if not better than any of the other 12 year olds on the team." We were so proud of him and you can tell by the expression on his face that he was proud of himself as well. I love you D and am so proud of you.
