So I must admit I have a very big flaw, I am not a very good teacher. I think it all started when my sister who is two years older than me started reading slower than me (which actually happened when I was in kindergarten). Don't get me wrong, I love my sister, but she knows better than to read aloud in front of me, I will step in with my amazing reading abilities and say the words she pauses or fumbles on without hesitation. I guess it's OK when it's just you and your sister who at times makes fun of you, calls you fat, and at times thrown a sucker punch your way (she used to anyway, she hasn't done any of those things in at least 25 years) , not so OK when you have a 5 year old reading up a storm. So reading duty has fallen onto daddy's hands, I will sit and listen, but I keep my mouth closed. Surprisingly Shane is a natural teacher, which I always thought he was, but to that I give him a super kudos. He may not know where places are located on a map, but that's what google is for right? Besides, if you can read, you can do anything. So for now, my sweet little boy has started into the level 2 reading books and doing an amazing job!
In other news my sister is in town, she still loves me regardless of my flaws, and Buddy has had a wonderful day playing with his 7 cousins that totally cater to his every whim. Of course at the end of the day we've had to wash the stink off of him from the over exuberance of playing!
So now we are getting ready to hit the sack after someone not sleeping well for 2 days in anticipation of the cousins arrival. And I have been lucky enough to have been placed on call tonight. All I have to say is super yipee, and I think that I have been home on call more than working lately and I like it.( Sometimes I like to pretend I'm a stay at home mom and live in a fantasy world). It's great!
So all in all a super fantastic play day!!!
