Michael started reading the Magic Tree House books that there are 4o or so of them and they teach the kids in a mystery about places and older times. The one I read to the boys tonight is about a unicorn and it brought me back to when I was a kid and how much I loved unicorns. I collected statues and stuffed animals and read as many books as I could on unicorns. I remember being 9 and moving to KY in a very hot summer where nobody was playing outside and I didn't have any friends yet so I read all the time. I use to look so forward to the bookmobile coming to the end of our street. I would get a bunch of books but I'd always have them read before the bookmobile came back. I am glad Michael has such a love for books. He has a Magic Tree house book in the car he reads. (2nd grade level) One in his room (that I started reading to them since its a 3rd grade book level)and one in his backpack at school that he reads on his freetime he said.
The picture I posted today is of the "flowers" the boys picked me in the backyard. Technically I think they are weeds but its the thought that counts! They have always been sweet about picking me flowers if they ever see them.
