I was having a bit of trouble with my 4 yr old and reading till…
just recently. We sat down this morning and read for a while in our hooked on phonics workbook. Not a long while about 15 minutes is all the attention span I get, and I will take what I can get at this point. Then we played a few math games, which my 4 yr old won both games we played. He was very excited to beat mom :-). We spent approx 30 minutes at our table.

We then went to the computer and visited Learn to Read. We spent approx 30 minutes here and my son just loves it. We then went to Let’s Make A Calendar and spent an additional 15 minutes or so here. We both had a great time.

This is a very nice resource for learning to read that we will use often.

How Could You?

Our family has a dog named Dottie. We adopted her from the animal shelter about a year ago. We adopted her at my husband’s request as I like pets, but was not brought up with one in my own home.

I like our pet and especially my son loves his dog. My husband has always been the one to feed her and make sure she had water etc. I know she is our but the full responsibility for her care is his. We agreed on this when we adopted her. But… I read this story today that touched my heart and made me appreciate our beloved pet.

How Could You?

Ths is a real tear jerker
