Well miss 'Taye didn't win the reading contest :( she was pretty mad and upset when she got home, I was almost afraid to ask what happened, turns out some little girl read 62 books! I felt so sorry for 'Taye, she looked up at me and said she won, not me. I could've cried for her! I told her it didn't matter that we were so proud of her and she did her best! 'course she takes after me so this lil talk didn't seem to help much lol Greg took her to wal-mart with him and let her pick out some video games and a barbie sleeping bag and he says that made things alot better, so I just hope this doesn't discourage her.
What a terrible awful person I am! I shouldn't even have a blog anymore! No, I'm not in a mood lol Here it is 2 am and I just woke up about an hour ago. I went to nap about 4 pm and slept thru everything! Greg handled the kids for me, but how I slept thru his mumblings and apparently him calling me from town twice (i talked to him) is beyond me. He just woke up and asked me why I'm at the desk and I said cause I didn't blog before I went to sleep, he knew visits were the top thing on my list, so he grunted and went right back to snoring lol.
I managed to make a few visits but I am heading back to bed now and will do my best to start over again tomorrow lol

Taye, you did fantastic. And you are No.1 in our eyes! Congratulations on your reading!

Hi Aretha. Any child that reads one book is a winner in my eyes. I hate those school contests as they really turn kids away from reading by choosing only one winner. Every kid should get a prize for finishing a book. Have a great week dear friend. ~Hugs~

Hi Aretha! Sorry 'Taye didn't win the reading contest. I still think she did a great job!
