2 more days until heather arrives! the countdown continues.....
exciting news is about my dear aiden trace: he is reading as of this week! the funny part is this was a goal of mine for the summer. ask me how many times i've REALLY sat down and worked with him.... that would be a big, fat ZERO. (now dave claims that he has, but we all know that's not the truth!!)
as of 2 weeks ago, i took the boys to the library to receive their official library cards. hey, i am a teacher and figure that's the least i can do for my children. anywho- we love to read dr. seuss books together (who doesn't?) and drew borrowed "Hop on Pop." gotta love it. aiden took so well to it that he read the whole book out loud with just a few helps from mom, the teacher.
so great. right before kindergarten, my oldest can officially say he is a beginning reader. we're practicing every day, twice a day. i'll admit that i'm looking for the praise from the kindergarten teacher! ha. maybe even some denari from her check since i've done her job. either that or she can trade me places and teach the high schoolers. let's face it: 1 child out of her class is already reading.
now just to work on drew......
