P is for Pizza and J is for Jump Rope

Mason is doing the letter "P" this week, so his class took a field trip to Ria's to make their own pizza! How fun is that...he loves when we make homemade pizza's at home and really enjoyed getting to do it at the real pizza restaurant. He loved seeing it go through the oven and what it looked like when it came out. At Braxton's school they learn different sports and activities every week or so and last week they started jump roping. Oh. My. Goodness. The child is obsessed with getting better and better at this skill. He was so frustrated that he didn't catch on the very first day they started it, and has made it his goal go be the best jump roper in his class. I don't know how he still walks around, his little legs have to be like jello. This morning I went out to put their bags in the car for school and he was already outside jump roping...then on the way home from school he couldn't get here fast enough to start practicing some more. He has gotten quite good, jump roping backwards, one footed, running, standing still etc. It would be nice if he would put some of that energy into being the best reader or the best mathematician...I don't think they have jump rope scholarships available do they??
