Chapter books

It's easy to float from day to day, month to month and still think of both kids as babies, but we got yet another reminder last week that Miles is growing up and getting smarter all the time.  He started reading chapter books for school!  For the past year or so he'd bring home a simple phonics book every night.  One of us would read with him and then when he could read it back to his teacher he passed off and got a new book.  When they have read all the phonics books they get to start chapter books and do book reports.  His goal was to get to them before kindergarten is out this spring and he did it. 
It blows my mind that we are making plans for fall when he'll start first grade.  He turns six in May.  I now totally get how people say your kids will be adults before you know it.  All too true :(

Time for reading
