So I signed my kids up in the summer reading/listening club at the library for the summer. Mckayla has to read 10 books and then she can go into the library and spin a wheel for a prize, and Isaiah has to listen to 10 books and then he can spin the wheel. Well their crazy mother mis read the instructions, and thought Mckayla had to read 10 books, 50 pages each. We have been working diligently to get this accomplished, and finally Mckay read her 500 pages. I am so proud! We go into the library and realize that she only has to read 10 books, the 50 pg. thing is only for someone reading a large book, and every 50 pgs. they can count as a book. I feel a little stupid! Mckayla had her chance finally at the big wheel, and it landed on an ice cream cone at Dairy Queen.
Here she is enjoying all her hard work. Isaiah is enjoying one as well.

Yea McKayla (and you, that takes a lot of work!) I am sure reading the extra books made it all the more rewarding for her!
Just think of all the great quality time you spent together reading-even if you didn't need to in order to win the prize. An ice cream cone doesn't seem sufficient for 500 pages or reading though! :) She'll be set for Kindergarten for sure.
