The person Jordan talks about most from Kindergarten is his friend Mya. This is a picture that she made for him the other day. I think it's too cute not to share. (The back of the picture, in case you're wondering what the arrow leads to, is a graph that Mya drew. Because, as Jordan's recent schoolwork stated, "Graphing is Cool!".)
The day that Jordan came home with a list of all his classmates' phone numbers he asked if he could call Mya. He was on the phone for about 5 minutes, silent most of the time. Occasionally I would hear him say "hello?". When he hung up I could tell he was really upset, and when I asked him what was wrong he broke down and started to cry. He told me that Mya wasn't saying anything so he didn't know what to say. It just about broke my heart, but I still could barely keep from laughing. It turns out that Mya didn't have much phone experience, but since then they've had some succesful telephone conversations.
Jordan was invited to Mya's birthday party, and he spent the ride home telling me the story of how he and Mya became friends.
I heard from Mya's mom that Mya likes Jordan because he's nice but sometimes when she goes over by him she sometimes doesn't know what to say. Jordan tells me constantly that everyone makes fun of his last name, except for Mya.
Jordan came home from school one day in December with two pictures of reindeer that another friend had colored for him. One had green eyes and one had brown eyes. He told me that one had his color eyes and the other had Mya's color eyes.
Jordan was extremely excited to spend a day at Mya's house over Christmas vacation, and can't wait to have Mya over to our house to play. Good thing he's got two sisters so he has plenty of practice playing Barbies, My Little Ponies and dress up!
