Reading Everywhere!!!

Well, we continue to do well and so do the kids. Jordan is really enjoying school and to prove it she wants to read to Isaac and Sydney all of the time. (It may have something to do with being the oldest and the one in charge, but who's keeping track.) But I do have to say that she is setting a very good example for her brother and sister. The following is a picture I took this afternoon of Isaac reading to Sydney. She was very excited to sit and listen to him tell the story of Dora and her trip to the circus.And this picture is one I took of Jordan and Isaac this morning. I was getting kind of worried because things sounded very quiet (And in our house that can be a dangerous occurrence!) I went upstairs and Jordan and Isaac were in Isaa'sc closet and Jordan was reading "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". Probably not the book Isaac would have picked out but he was still very eager to have his sister read him a story.
It was nice to see them getting along so well today. (Usually someone is pulling the other's hair and hiding someones toy. You know this if you have ever called me on the phone and tried to have a 5 minute discussion. When I am on the phone seems to be prime fighting time for my kids!) So, today I am thankful for books and how closely they brought the kids together throughout the day.
Love Ya and God Bless, Tara G.

****A small clarification, when I say reading I mean telling the story by looking at the pictures :) Jordan is doing very well at learning to read but she is not quite reading big books like "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."****
