So last night some of the teachers from his school were reading books down at our local bookstore (and 25% of the evening’s profits went to the school library). Mrs. Cottle was one of the readers, and Levi and Carlos had gift certificates from their birthday to spend so we ventured down. What a great evening, the different teachers reading was fantastic. They picked out their favorite books and really put everything into reading them. Mrs. Cottle read “Make Way for Ducklings”, one that I remember fondly from my childhood. While she was reading and holding the book away from Carlos, he fell backward out of his chair. I have never seen him move so quickly, trying to right himself before she turned his way. Whew, he did it. Then he kept scooting closer and closer to her until he was practically in her lap.

Strange but sweet to see this other side of my little guy. 🙂
