Joey is in the 5th grade. School has always been a bit of a struggle for Joey but something has really kicked in this year and he is excelling. We are so pleased. Joey's interests are broad: reptiles, drums, baseball, school band (percussion), swimming, video games, eating, the Military channel, pool & ping pong. We got a pool table this year. It has a ping pong table top that fits over it. He can beat all of us at pool! Hands down, he is the best, or luckiest, player in the house. This goes over real well with his sisters as Joey rubs it in as only a little brother can, victory dance and all! He plays ping pong well but has some work to do if he wants to be "house champion" of that too. Joey got a snake for Christmas last year. Jake lives in Joey's room and has only gotten loose in the house twice. Once, we found him that same day and the other time we found him 3 days later! Joey got contacts this year, in case you couldn't figure out what was different about him. His glasses are a thing of the past. Joey had been begging for contacts for a couple years. After an unfortunate tetherball incident, we relented. Some great things about Joey: He has a great sense of humor. He keeps us all laughing. He puts a lot of effort into everything he does. He is kind and compassionate toward others.
