My son is officially a Nerd Fighter

So, it’s safe to say that Jake and I are obsessed with Brotherhood 2.0.  We just love Hank and John.  They are 2 brothers who, almost a year ago, decided to stop textually communicating.  They decided that they would only communicate via vlogs.  What is a vlog, you ask?  It’s a blog, but instead of words, they use videos.  So, every weekday, Hank and John make a vlog, alternating days. 

It’s also safe to say that Jake is a nerd, in the best sense of the word.  He is proud of his nerd fighter status!  So, when he was assigned a project to come up with a camp brochure and t-shirt, he had to make Camp Nerd Fighter!  This project was related to the novel study they were doing on Holes, which Jake read in 1st grade. Yeah, have I mentioned that he’s a smart one? So, anyways, this project was a blast.  We interjected a lot of Brotherhood 2.0 things into the brochure, and even listed John and Hank Green as co-founders. 

Here’s Jake in all his glory, doing the universal Nerd Fighter hand signal!

Here’s a closeup of the shirt.
