Jack has been reading on his own for quite a little while now. It seems like around Christmas time last year he really started to get it. However, before yesterday he had never carried around a book and read it nonstop before. We went to the library after school on Friday and he got a Magic Treehouse book about ninjas. He picked it up on Saturday and read the whole thing! So we went back to the library and got 5 more and then he read another one last night. Then today we had a two-hour meeting at church and he read another one during that time. When we got home he started another and finished it before bed. Lucky for us, there are 40 something Magic Treehouse books. I think we’ll be checking them all out soon!
With Jack getting out of school over an hour earlier this year, we’ve had lots more time in the afternoon to play and do fun stuff. We went to the pool twice last week, the library, got sno cones. One day the boys made garages for their hot wheels out of old boxes. And they had lots of time for wrestling and having fun. So far, Jack is loving EPiC and I think we are all loving the extra time at the end of the day.
