wednesday

nothing exciting or traumatic happened today.  i guess that's a good thing, right?  today was a little warmer yesterday, and tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer, making it harder to be stuck inside!  spring fever is so contagious!

my awesome friends, lisa and samantha, helped me grade papers before church tonight!  how cool are they?

tonight colby told me he was ready to read a chapter book! {so right now he's laying in bed reading diary of a wimpy kid.} that's such a MOMENT for me...maybe it's because i'm a teacher or maybe it's because i didn't like reading as a child.  whatever the reason, i absolutely love that my boys want to read!  i don't care that they don't want to read every waking minute of the day, but it just makes me smile to know that they enjoy reading.  the older i get the more i enjoy reading.

That would make me so proud! I totally have to nag Jacob to read. He is better now than he used to be. Glad your boys do it willingly! I am such a bookworm that I have a hard time understanding why someone would not like it! Thanks for letting me help you with the grading tonight. Let's do it again!
