This summer has really been a summer for reading. The three big kids completed a summer reading program through the library and earned prizes including Diamond Back baseball tickets. Unfortunately, the Colorado Rockies (Javi's old team) vs. Dbacks game is while we are in the Dominican Republic, so we will need to see the Padres or some other team. Anyways, the 2
oldest are reading chapter books like crazy and now the little ones ask Jordan to read their books to them, which gives Janae a break. Julia is doing well with her reading too, but she is still learning. She is Kindergarten age and is reading little readers and Dr. Seuss books - so we are proud of her. Jacklyn is actually learning a lot and reading some "sight words" just from doing "school" with Julia. Sometimes at night we give the kids 30 minutes or so to read under their covers with a flashlight. They just love that time together and we hear a lot of giggling and "read that part again!" coming from their room. The kids love to read the old testament too. They love the details and miraculous stories and have an amazing understanding of it all. Praise God for that love He has put in them for His word!
