Sitting in a quiet chair, in my comfy pajamas and just listening to my week~
I heard...
6 year old bravery...

amazement and awe...
After listening to her class discuss Ruby Bridge's acts of bravery and perseverance D innocently replies~ "She changed the world for everybody."
I am a reader with purpose and intention...
This reader combed through 4 books tubs looking for ONE specific book HE wanted to read!
perseverance ...
After working for several days to craft her love of Pete the Cat into a blog post she drafted this!
author an make intentional decisions...
After receiving feedback that the page on the left was difficult to read the author chose a new tool to allow him to write smaller and adjusted the size of his letters to make them stretch across the page without "smooching up at the edge."
what I have always dreamed of hearing...
This first grader remembered our FIRST read aloud together!
