All About Wyatt

If you have a conversation of any length with Wyatt, you are bound to hear "YOLO GG Swagg!" exclaimed.

Translation:

YOLO - you only live once

GG- good game

Swagg - cool confidence

You might also hear "'Sup?!"  translation -What's up?!

He still likes food and loves when the family is all together around the dinner table.  Wyatt is always excited for dinner.  

Wyatt spends his afternoons playing Legend of Zelda or Minecraft.  For his upcoming birthday or Christmas, he wants a 3DS.  He has worn his out and knows they are beyond the budget, so he is well aware that this might be a combination gift.

He goes to school often looking like a mad scientist with wrinkled pants or a crookedly buttoned shirt.

He earns solid grades, and he has adjusted very nicely to middle school.  Wyatt complains about things like assigned lunch tables that separate him from his friends.  He works hard to finish his homework before the bus picks him up at school to bring him home.  As a result he's so distracted that he has missed the bus once. A friend realized that Wyatt was not there in time for the bus to turn around for him.   

We can tell him where to meet us after church and run into him as he heads in the wrong direction to try and meet us.  He might be 11 but in public we still have to track him like a five-year-old :)  Speaking of such, we hope that a major growth spurt awaits him in the future.  At his recent band concert, Wyatt stood a full head shorter than everyone else in the band.

Our kids call him Tangerine because it rhymes with his middle name.  He hates being called Tangerine, and he hates his middle name.  Savannah paid for accidentally letting his middle name  slip on the bus one day.  Wyatt came home in quite a mood.

 

Right now Wyatt mentions daily that he cannot wait to put up the Christmas tree.  He loves that tree! Unfortunately, Wyatt owns the fewest ornaments- something we do hope to change.

He's still affectionate and a ready helper when something needs to be done.  We love this guy!
