Story Time

I love to read! Adam loves to read! I have always hoped that my kids would love to read also. Some days they do and some days they don't. But they do read and they read everyday for at least 30 minutes! This year I have seen an explosion in the improvement of reading. It is amazing to watch!!!

Britain is really getting this reading thing! I love to watch her read and sound out words!

Kalixta struggles but she is my little tortoise! She usually takes longer to pick things up but once she does she never forgets!

Ariana and Tori are little monkeys. They love to do anything their brothers and sisters do! They love to be read to but are just as content to look at the books themselves!

Nikolas has just started to love to read! I have had to ask him to put his book away when he is eating. Or tell him that now is not the time to read. This is a miracle! I love to see him reading for pleasure! I think this is because he accepted a challenge. Last August he was given the challenge to read The Book of Mormon by the end of the year. He did it and I know this why he is doing so well!

Diary of a Wimpy Kid series is a favorite in our house! The three oldest kids have all read them at least once! 

We have started reading the first Harry Potter book together as a family. 

I hope that all my kids continue to read and learn to love it even more!
