I recently took my 12 year old son to the doctor for his shots and his sports physical. The doctor talked about what was to come with his upcoming seventh grade year and suggested that he write at least one paragraph each day to prepare him for the upcoming language arts course. She said that many parents buy their child a notebook for the Summer and have the children journal everyday. We decided to get a little more creative with this writing task and started up a blog for him.
He was raring to go, but first we had to think of a unique name for his blog. It took us hours of thinking and finally he found the perfect name: Go110Percent.com My son plays basketball and his dad is always telling him to give 110 percent at everything he does. He is so proud of himself and is running to check for comments every 15 minutes, so if you have time, he’d love to hear from you!

Thank you Kelli, it is really helping him with his writing skills. He is more EVERYONE can read it when it is online. We spent an hour of so writing and rewriting today\’s post. He is really proud of it and I am proud of him for trying so hard.
What a unique name. Giving 110 percent will never fail you, you will be proud of yourself knowing you gave your all, and then some. Good luck to you in everything you do.
