Geoff and I took some time one afternoon to have a picnic with Emma in the backyard. After we had finished eating, Geoff handed her a paddle ball after a brief demonstration, and Emma tried to do it herself. It was funny to watch her try to get it going, she kept hitting herself with the ball, but she was very determined to do it.
Emma loves to read, and when she wants to read a lot she will stack all the books in her wheelbarrel and take them where she wants to go. This way she does not have to go back and forth getting more books.
I was folding clothes one day, and I noticed that she had gotten really really quiet, which always makes me a little nervous. I went to go see what she was up to, and she was buried in a pile of books. She had taken every book in the living room, and some that were in her room, out of their bins, and started reading, she had read all of her books. She is actually pretty good at remembering the story, and every once in awhile she will read to us. She is such a smart little girl.
