**Sigh**
Annika and Kade both got the Citizen of the Month award for their class in September. The interesting thing is that they got it for the same thing: Great Attitude.
They didn't tell me about it until October when they brought home these pictures:
The other day I was in my bathroom combing my hair before an outing, while Adrienne waited for me in my bedroom. She was doing a puzzle that has simple words on it to keep herself occupied because I was "taking sooooo-everrrrr".
Then I heard something that made my heart sing:
She was sounding out the words!
I love that. A beginning reader is the most amazing gift! In my excitement, I offered to take her to the library and get a new book just for her.
We have expanded our horizons to Hop On Pop. She loves being able to pick out books for herself (with help from mom) just like the big kids.
Forgive my bragging. I'm just very proud.
Now...off to parent teacher conference.
