Taye started out the school year pretty simply. Go to school and attend swim practice three times a week. Then he wanted to join the science club with his good friend - and that seemed simple enough - just a two hour session once a week after school.
Fast forward a few months and he's moved up a level in swim - now four practices a week each an hour and a half long! (This past week in practice they timed an 800 yd swim - 32 laps in case you were wondering - Taye's time was 14:19. I'm not sure what sport Taye will eventually end up pursuing but his lungs will be ready for anything.)
Science club is gearing up for a competition and is now meeting Friday from 3-7 and Saturday from 11-5. Oh, and cub scouts still one evening a week. And this week a talk on Sunday. And at least one swim meet a month.

Taye was grumpy before all this and he's still grumpy now but I'm amazed at his ability to get it all done.
He squeezes in his homework with amazing fervor, and when Dad was too busy for pinewood derby car stuff he just did it all himself.
Keep it up, Taye, keep it up!
Great work Taye!! I don't know how you get it all done! Simply amazing!
