Reading is fun!

Lately MaKena has been asking us to read to her a lot more. She’s always loved her books but when we’d sit down and read to her she would only sit with us for a few minutes and then she was up and on to something new. Now she’ll pick out a book and sit on our lap and listen to the entire book. When we get done reading she’ll take the book and read it herself. She usually says “I read mommy.” One night last week Jacob asked her if she wanted him to read his library book to her. She said yes so I thought it would be a good time to take some cute pictures of the two of them. She just loves her brother Jacob. If I say my Jacob she corrects me very quickly by saying “no mommy, my Jacob.” She’s also starting to get very sad when Jacob leaves. Many times when I have to drop him off at his dad’s and MaKena is in the car she cries after he gets out of the car. She says “my Jacob” and it just breaks my heart. She really loves her big brother and I love watching them play together. We are blessed!

Aren't they cute?!

One night last week I was lying in bed reading my book and Jacob decided to join me. Well, not too long after Jacob crawled in bed MaKena grabbed one of her books and joined us.
