Guess What?

Hey Mom, guess what? Jack is starting to read out-loud to us! It is so much fun to hear him sound out the letters and make words. We have to be careful to pick books that he hasn't memorized yet or he will just spit out the sentence from memory and not really read. It makes my heart feel so good.

I'm at a loss for words at the moment. I miss you terribly like there is a hole in my heart. I still say things like "my parents live....", or "we are going to Mornin' and Geddy's." But the kids are quick to correct me. Other people don't say anything. Like at work, a co-worker was talking about some food and I responded with, "my mom loves that". It is sad when I realize that I'm not using the right tense of the word, that I should use the past tense.
