We just finished reading "The Cricket in Times Square". It is a beautiful story and reminded us a lot of Charlotte's Web. During our reading we learned about New York, what a subway is, and crickets!
The girls love to play with Wikki stix while I'm reading. It's amazing how they can create scenes and listen attentively all at the same time. Juliette sometimes seems to be in a complete other world while I read. But then Spencer gets home at the end of the day, and she will tell him exactly what happened in the story while he was gone.
And the girls have opened their own book store. I have been shopping there a lot lately. I usually bring Karis and Peter to this book store. The ladies working at the store are amazing. They have a great variety of books, offer stickers to children, and usually give more change than you actually paid them.
The philosophy behind their hours went like this:
"We can't open at 7am, because we are still in pajamas and have bad breath. Let's open at 8. And we need a good sleep to run our store - so let's close at 6pm."
Settled. Sign made.
In other news - Juliette finished her 100 reading lessons. We celebrated with Blizzards! Or "blisters" as she calls them ;)
