These are the sweet moments

With our septic backing up this week, a $1000 bill to fix the pipe that caused it and possibly more septic costs coming, it wasn't exactly a pleasant week.  May is going to be VERY busy anyways.  Brian was out of town last week and will be out for a couple of days again next week, so today was pretty welcomed.  We bought tickets to the Cardinals game for Brian's 40th this year.  His birthday isn't 'til Winter, but can't really go to a baseball game then.  He's not a partier type, so this was great.  Just us and another couple for an adult day.  Chase had a field trip there anyways, so it worked great.  We sat by ourselves and drove, but brought him home with us.  Weather couldn't have been more perfect and they won!

Jaemin has been so interested in reading lately.  He reads pretty well and doesn't want to be read to any longer.  He reads anything he finds.  If he doesn't know the word, he spells it.  He has to read a book before bed every night.  We've never been those great parents that read to our kids and do nightly rituals.  But this one loves to read.  He reads 30-70 page books a few times a night.  His newest (but shorter) favorite is Green Eggs and Ham.  He took to reading that quickly.  It was getting late tonight, so I told him to read quietly with his lamp on.  It was SO cute!
