This past Sunday the boys had a day together since I was at work. I learned that they watched Guardians of the Galaxy together. (Declan said he wanted to see the second one in theaters and I said I didn't think he could sit for the entire movie. They watched the first as a test). Two thirds of the way through the movie and Declan says to Daddy "When the movie is done we're going to clap!" He loved it. That evening during his bath he told me all about it, so many details. The little Groot at the end was his favourite character followed by the bad guy of course.
On Tuesday when Daddy picked Declan up from school one of the other kids asked him why he had construction clothes on. Declan corrected him and said "He doesn't work construction, he works at a Lumber yard..." and continued to tell the kids what Daddy does.
Daddy's best day ever.
This evening for bedtime I grabbed the new Library book Declan brought home. It's called Red is Best. It took a whole lot of patience but as it used many words Declan has become familiar with I let him read the book to me. He needed help with a few words like "Raining" and "Riding" but overall he did fantastic. He's recited a book to me before from memory but this was the first time he's read an entire book to me because he could read it. He was really pleased with himself and of course we were pretty proud of him.
