Counting

Counting to three isn't really new - but it has mostly been in the way of a ready set go, one two three.  However last night we did counting of items/pictures in a book.  He led me in counting the windows on the boat - one, two, three.

Better-Start Classroom Performance

Last night the Better-start Class hosted a short performance for family and friends.  We had pizza, visited with friends and enjoyed their reading of "Pigeon Wants A Puppy".  Written by Mo Willems.

Happy to attend he skips into the cafeteria.

While not sitting like his school friends - he does stay present in the circle. 

"Sdoory"

Christopher asked for a "doory" at bed time last night. I didn't get - but he did the same thing tonight. SO I guessed "do you want mommy to read you a story?" He replied "SDOORY" He sat through 2 books!!!!! This is the first time that he has ever asked to read!!!!

I just learned last night though apparently he has asked his Mema and KK during his sleep over while we where away. 

This is a very exciting development.   I remember sharing story time with his bog brother every night.  We had a big old cushy love seat in his room that we used to sit together for hours reading through books.  Yet till now it had been a disappointing chore to make Christopher sit and read together.  He never lasted more than a page or two and he'd get up and play or drag me away to do something else. 

I so look forward to sharing more story time with him.
