Willow's shown her first interest in playing a team sport! She's going to try being on a basketball team this winter! Stay tuned!

Reading and Honor Roll!

Willow and Owen were caught doing this this morning:

She did a great job of being patient and helping Owen with words he didn't know. He's been super motivated to read some decodable Star Wars books I ordered for him recently. Reading level wise they're probably at his frustration level, but his background knowledge and interest level definitely take over and he's loving them! Check out this video of him!

We're super proud of Willow's hard work too! 2nd grade is the first time they've received letter grades and she's earned some good letters:

Among Willow's other skills is now jumproping on the trampoline!
