I had to take a picture of this rare event in my home. My munchkin reading on a Saturday afternoon instead of playing outside or propped in front of the tube. No way! The amazing thing is that he finished this book by Sunday afternoon. What book could be this captivating... to a boy..... well, it's
Diary of a Wimpy Kid. These pictures were taken last weekend.
Oh, yeah baby! He got the whole set as a birthday gift from Papa Pablo (grandpa). That means I can rest assured he will meet his reading goal before his first report card. Thank you Papa Pablo for making life easier for us. I'm sure that's why Munchkin got the book set, right? ;) No, actually, Munchkin got mula$$$ from Papa and he made a wise investment on these fabulous books. All I know is that I'm happy there are some good books out there for boys to read. Do you know how many times my son refuses to read a book because, "It's a girl book". The only problem now, is that he already read three of the four books. What will I do next? I know.... I'll see if he's willing to read
The Series of Unfortunate Events books. My older kids loved those.
While my munchkin was reading last weekend, Father and eldest son were busy using their carpentry skills. I am not a fan of Halloween, but I am a fan of dad and son bonding. Their mutual goal to make our front yard a cemetery showed how well they work together. Dad made all the cuts on the miter saw, and son was the architect. "Pretty good", I said. Well not good enough it turned out. The wood was stained this weekend to look old and murky ("Oops" stain from The Home Depot).
This is what our yard looks like now. Yup, they also constructed crosses. Well, at least we have a Christian cemetery in our front yard. That makes me feel a tad better.
