budding reader

The boys LOVE LOVE LOVE to go to the library!! And I'll admit, that's something I get super excited about because I've always been a big reader!! It really is neat to see them appreciate reading like I do...for now anyway!! Ha!! Yesterday, after Ash got out of school, we went to the local library and I was trying to help Ash find books marked with a "Level 1" so that he would make sure to have some that he could actually read when we got home. I had only pointed out a couple options when Ash looked up at me and said "I just wanna look by myself..." OH MY!!!! I was so sad!! He's growing up WAY too fast...

Over Spring Break, The boys and I read over 10 books each. They both still love to read. I read to them so much and put so much excitement into the stories, I think they read now and imagine it all themselves. Once you instill that love of reading, it usually stays with them. Love your precious boys!!!!

Yup. He's growing up! "by myself" starts to expand more and more the older they get. The tricky part is letting them!
