Today I got to go to Alyson's school and read to the kids in her class a few stories. This week was "National Book Reading Week" and Alyson had to read stories every night and log them for a school project. Today all the kids brought in their reading logs as well as their favorite story to show their classmates.
I, along with two other Moms, got to read some of the stories in groups that the kids brought in. Aly chose Pinkalicious as her favorite to share with her class mates. Katlin brought, "Have You Filled Your Bucket Today" and Joshua shared the story "The Little Rabbit". All three choose great story's and I think enjoyed being read too.
I have to say it felt odd to be the only Dad there. However, when Aly got to introduce me to her class as "This is my Dad, Kevin", and the happiness in her her voice, it quickly changed. It felt good and I realized that I am lucky to get share this experience that most Dad's miss out on.
