Reading and Art

My hard work payed off people! I have been trying to read to this kid since he was born. Keatonas never shown any interest because he would rather be "doing" than "sitting". For about a month now he has started to really love being read to. This week I found him chilling on the couch "reading" to himself. I love little readers! Katelin is always creating. Here she was drawing a picture of what her birthday party is going to be like. Her birthday is Easter Sunday this year and so an Easter party we will be having. She can sit for hours and color, craft, glue, create, whatever. She loves it!

I can only imagine the money spent on food for him as a teenager!! He scrunches his nose a lot and makes silly noises. He is such a ham! The book under the bench is his favorite. He hums the song, "Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see...
