"What I love is near at hand."

This makes me happy... Timmy doing his reading without being reminded to do so!
I make the boys read during the summer. I say "make", because (unfortunately) it is not something they would choose to do. They have to read for 30 minutes each day (the bigger boys). As an incentive to get them to be happier about it, I pay them to read. A chapter book is worth five dollars and Matty gets a quarter for every little book he reads. Money talks around here. Thanks Tim, for remembering to do your reading. He's currently reading "Flight 29 Down."
