Yesterday our after school activity was coloring Easter eggs. All three kids got completely into creating their own little egg heads - a fun day for all of us.
On Monday, Brady came home and said "I need 6 more points to get into the Accelerated Reader 250 point club ... by tomorrow! Mom, can you find me a 6 point book?" What we had from the library were two 4 point books, so Brady spent about four (or more?!) hours on Monday afternoon and evening and Tuesday morning devouring those books, so that he could earn the points in school on Tuesday. We let him stay up late on Monday and get up early on Tuesday, because he was so focused on his goal, and it was nice to see this all come from him. The school is supposed to have their AR assembly today, so we're anxious to hear how it goes for Brady. He went off to school, feeling proud and excited.
