We have been working A. L.O.T. on reading around here.
There may or may not have been some tears shed {by both of us}.
But nonetheless we have worked and worked and worked until that fateful day came.
He read the WHOLE book by himself.
And then completed, turned in, and brought back a book report marked with a 100% and a Rock Star message from his teacher.
We were both all smiles... all day!
However, as we worked on that fateful day this was happening in the other room....
Every bucket, drawer, and bin over turned so that Beck could find just the right legos for this little machine of his.
It was his first contraption built all on his own.
He definitely added to the smiles that day.
All while this little lady woke up from her nap with the most wicked, I just pulled my piggies out, bed head you have ever seen.
Definite smiles.
