October 26, 2008 - Paige completed her first "school book"

Paige just finished her first "school book". She has learned at 3.5 years old that the girls are busy during the day on some studies. Feeling left out, she grabbed one of many color books and preschool books that I have around the house. She started out one day and found out school wasn't much fun at all! I mean you had to follow directions and color things correctly. She put the book down for several months and was content again to play. However, the last couple weeks it has been too cold out to play in the mornings, so she opted to sit at the table doing play doh or some other activity. This soon bored her and she picked up her book again and decided to work at it. This time, she enjoyed the coloring. I'm not sure the book actually taught her anything. She already knew her colors...and that was the point of the book, but perhaps some persistence and determination to complete a book.

Anyways, she was quite proud of her accomplishment. She is content to be back playing once again.

Warmly, ~Melissa
