Emily is tops at reading
Emily brought a note home from school yesterday. She has read the most books in her class this year. As a reward, she will attend a lunch today with children's author Susan Stevens Crummel. Emily had just checked out Crummel's book, Cook-A-Doodle-Doo, from the library. Because of the recognition, I wanted Emily to have her own copy of the book for Crummel to sign at lunch today. I called around to the bookstores and finally found a copy last night and drove across town to get it.
It's amazing to think at the beginning of the year, we were reading books to Emily and now at the end of the year, she is reading the books on her own. Very exciting and we are very proud of Emily!
