And it went well!
While it may seem that this shouldn't shock me with all of the crafting I've done with the boys over the years, I will admit that there used to be a time (until not too long ago actually) when I would have to psych myself up before I attempted it. We were always well intentioned, but of course things would never go as ... we'll say smoothly as ... I hoped. Ahem.
Thankfully, if today is any indication, I think the days of me being drenched in sweat at the end of our crafting sessions may be over. lol

Jack blew me away while we were making our cards because he wrote all of the letters I told him by himself! I did tell him where to put each letter, but still. Pretty awesome!

This week also brought with it more 100% spelling tests for both the boys. I am so proud of how hard they are working in school this year!
We actually have all of the boys' spelling word lists hanging on our dining room wall. Shawn reads every word at least once a day; most often he reads the words every time he sits down at the table--not because we tell him to, either. He likes to read them and does so on his own!

I am also beyond proud of Jason's performance on his ST.AR testing. This testing measures a student's reading level so he can participate in the Acc.elerated Re.ading program.
Jason did extremely well! His reading level was at a third grade, seventh month level! That's not too shabby for a first grader! :)

Jack's love affair with You Tube continues. He has now discovered the Three Little Pigs Geico commercial.
He also now breaks out with "Wee Weee Weeee!" random times throughout the day. Sigh.
