Emm has been reading so diligently for the Summer Reading Program at the Library. She has become a bit of an addict...but really who would complain about that:} Every week the kids participate, the Librarian gives them a small prize to keep them motivated. This last time, she got a coupon for a free ice cream at Peter's. It was good for one child and {parent}, although Emmrey insisted that it was for "her and Mom", since that is what the Librarian told her. Well, you don't have to ask me twice to go for ice cream, so we made it a special date for just the two of us. We went downtown and enjoyed sitting outside eating our cones. Emmrey knew right away she wanted the blue cotton candy flavor.....
We walked around a little, but mostly just asked each other "Would you rather..." questions {a favorite conversation topic with Emm these days:} It was so fun spending a little time together ...just Emmrey and me.
Wow super reader, my kids kinda fizzled after awhile. She is the cutest thing.
