Ayden's 14th Birthday - October 2020
Ayden turned 14 on the 18th and this year we didn't really do anything big. With Covid we didn't feel a big party would be a good idea so we are planning a weekend with his best friend Jake later in the spring.
A few things about Ayden are...
He is very mature for his age. He wants to be as independent as possible and does not like being told what to do. It makes it hard as a parent but we have learned to be creative.
He is attending an online private school this year called Laurel Springs School. The beginning of the year was a struggle but he is now in the grove and is excelling in class. He enjoys being able to sleep in, wear sweats all day and not have to be in crowds (which causes him anxiety).
His favorite things this year is his dog, building and fixing computers, playing video games online with his friends, mountain biking with his Dad, eating sushi and crab legs and just being with his friends as much as he can.
This year he has survived getting his braces off, Coronavirus pandemic which included a lockdown for a few months, violence in the cities from groups fighting against police and government, a wildfire that came very close to our neighborhood, and a trip to Moab and Colorado with his Mom and Dad.
Sadly this is the best picture I have (parent of the year here).
