Boring...

This blog is nothing if not BORING... I need to liven up my life. I am like a cat but instead of sleep, eat, sleep.... it's work, work, work, eat junk, work, work, run, sleep, dream of work. UGHHHH... I need a life. Then I come home and play on this lap top all night. I think my girls think I live on this thing.


So I want to share some things happening with learning in our house. Emma was invited to participate in a literacy group. There are 3 meetings and we just finished out second one. The kids are broken into groups by age and go off with high school student teachers to read some books. Then the parents are told about ways to increase literacy in the house for the kids. This meeting focused on writing. There were so many cool things to do, but the one that stuck out was having a writing note journal. So Emma got a notebook and wrote me a note. I am supposed to check her notebook as often as I can and write her a note back. So it will be a back and forth thing. She is keeping it tucked under her pillow and is very excited. I think this is awesome because she has struggled with reading and writing last and is now catching up. I am very proud of her.
