Be still my heart, Jackson is reading Charlotte’s Web. That’s right, the five year old is reading a chapter book. I am over the moon about it. Routinely I pray, “Dear God, please make them readers.” I will not rest until they sufficiently bury their noses in books.
In this photo, Jack is reading aloud to us the second chapter of Charlotte’s Web while Jeremy paints one of the many rocks we picked up on our field trip to the Little River.
I could just stare at this photo for hours.
Incidentally, Jeremy found a rock that is shaped like Tennessee, so I painted it as such.
Love that it’s ORANGE! Used to have a neighbor in Atlanta with dual Tennessee Flags on the back of his car all year round. Also, stop watching and go get the Kleenex before he gets to the end!
Jack was already distressed that Fern’s dad was going to kill the pig in the beginning of the book. His eyes got big with worry!
