Brayden, you are 11! That is so crazy to me. You aren't a little boy anymore!  You are smart, talented, inquisitive, helpful, and a great big brother. You understand science, chemistry, and physics better than I do. The conversations that you and your father have are amazing to me, and I am so lost as to what you guys discuss. It is so exciting to me to see you grasp those complex concepts so easily. 

You enter Intermediate School this year. You'll have a locker and 9 periods. You got accepted into the honors classes, which doesn't surprise us at all.The electives that you chose are Poly Music (ukulele), a computer course, and an arts and crafts course. I love how diverse your interests are an how much you really grasp the things that you are taught.

I so enjoy watching you grow and learn and start becoming a little more independent in this life. You are going to accomplish so much in this world, Brayden! Stay humble, stay kind, and know that through God, EVERYTHING is possible.

Love, Mom
