Reading Olympics

Will had his reading Olympics tournament tonight. He did good. They answered 53 questions correctly. At the end there were too many people from his school competing so he stepped down to give someone else a chance. Isn’t that cool? He did that all on his own, but then when they asked the questions he knew ten more questions than the ones up there and they got it wrong so he was a little bummed about that but he was still stoked and just happy that he competed. Will has always been slow at school and has to fight every step of the way, so for him to compete in an academic tournament was a real I don’t know pride booster – I don’t know how to explain it, but I’m proud of him. He got a shirt that has some kind of weird monster with a book on it that says Smart Something, he’s wearing it and was smiling and telling me how he read and remembered all those books.
