Reading

I never realized how competitive Taylor can be. I know she doesn't like to lose but it has really shown this week. The elementary school is doing a grade by grade reading competition. The kids have to read each day and record it and for every ten minutes they read they get a "rock" (crumpled up paper/newspaper) for their class. Well Tay has been very upset that some of the kids in their class have not been reading so now she is trying to read for them and make up their time. We are already to seventy minutes tonight and that was with taking time for a shower, to go to the library, play with her sister, and start her Valentine's Day box. She informed me that she plans to read more after supper. For this week her class is ahead but only by nine rocks (this goes for the month of February) so it should be an interesting month!
