Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been blogging much lately. Things are picking back up with the school year getting closer. I started my new job last week. I LOVE it! I love everything about being in the library! And I'm bringing home lots of books to share with the kids! They have read so many books in the last week! I'm so proud of them and impressed by them! Avery has never really been much of a reader, but the last week, some days she's read as much as 2 hours in a single day! That's a huge feat for my girl! I didn't care much for reading when I was younger, so I want her to be different. I want her to love reading the way Michael and Sis do. The books she's been reading lately might be a little on the easy side for her, but she's sitting there and just gobbling them up, so I'm not complaining! Reading comes pretty easy to Connor and generally I don't have to fight him much to get him to do it. But he's been reading a lot lately too. Before we went on vacation I got him a new book, Dog Man. He loves them! The only problem is that they're hardback and really expensive books. The good news is that the library has all of them, and since they're so popular, Karla makes sure to always get the new ones when they come out. Connor has read through 3 or 4 of them now. I imagine he'll be able to finish all of them well before school starts. Only working 3 days a week has been strange. I love being at the school and love working in the library with Karla, so I want to be there every day. I did a couple partial days this week to help the Kindergarten teachers test incoming kiddos, and it was really hard to only work part of the day and then leave before the day was over. I just felt like I was leaving a lot of extra work on Karla's plate because I hadn't got it all done in time. I feel like I could work 40 hours a week and still not have everything done. It's never ending. And the students haven't even arrived yet... 😬😬😬 I just have to retrain my brain a little. It's going to be a great year! I loved my job as a para a couple years ago, then last year was a lot more rough. I'm looking forward to another great year where I love my job again. More later! Bye!
