Girls Day

Rose and I enjoyed a girls Day today. Here is a very blurry picture from my camera phone of Rose at the nail Salon. (Thank you Jody for my gift certificate) We then went to lunch and then home to do some girly activities and crafts. Rose you are such a joyful little girl and a true blessing.

Cheerleading

Rose's (4 and 5 year olds) squad cheered at the 1st and 2nd graders flag football game at church on Saturday.
Mommy: "Did you have fun?"
Rose: "yes"
Mommy: "What was your favorite part?"
Rose: "When we were allowed to take breaks."

I can read!!!

On Saturday night Rose yells for me with much excitement. I thought daddy was in her room reading her bedtime stories....so I was unsure why she would be calling out for me. I get in her room and she is just about to burst with joy. "Mommy, I can read this BOOK!!" "Do you want to hear me read it?" She reads the book to me. (part reading, part just memorizing) I was so happy for her. She said "I can read! Thank you God for giving me this book so I can read!!"
In her school work she has been learning to read blends and small words, but no books yet. This was a big step for her.
