See Dick Run...

Do you remember the very first words you ever read out loud?
'See Dick. See Dick run.' Yeah, good times....

Well yesterday was a proud mama moment. Paden read his very first book out loud. Very exciting, and very big boy...
His little book was called 'The House'. It's called a pattern book, 'this is a....this is a....'

Paden was quite anxious to show us his stuff!


We've always enjoyed reading - bedtime stories are always the best.

From now until the end of the school year, Paden will take home two books to read per week...it's nice to have someone read since I'm still stuck with laryngitis.






I wish my garden looked like that...alas, I am not a greenthumb, but it was most excellent to see his joy (and pride..he's such a Leo) in being able to read to us.
I can't wait to see what the next book will be!!! :)
