Sunday

After feeling sick for a few days, the little ones got rowdy today!

This is the first time they played together for this long without Ira orchestrating. Emers is really getting old!














"what mama? I can't rip all these things down?"





Ira is still sick... She laid around and watched movies. Then came out and worked 18 pages in her phonics book and a couple pages in "explode the code".

She is really reading now. Sounding out words and figuring it all out. So cool to watch.
