Young Author's Day

Today parents were asked to come to school and have their child read a story that they wrote and illustrated.  Grace wrote about an animal, of course.  The book was called "The Rabbit". 

She was so excited to sit and read it to me today. 

 Here is the cover of her book, and a little something about the author.

The children in Miss Grimm's kindergarten class have also been working on a class book about "important things".  Some kids wrote about grass, some kids wrote about the importance of chickens, and others wrote about the importance of brushing your teeth.  Grace decided to write about sunflowers.  She is her Mother's child!  Here is her story and illustration.

I am so proud of Grace.  She has come along way with her reading and writing this year.  After reading to me, she always says, "See Mommy, I really can read.  Just like Sissy"  She enjoys school and can't wait to start first grade.  I on the other hand, would like things to be in slow motion.  My girls are growing up too fast, and it really does seem like they were born yesterday.
