Check out my muscles

October 24th - Normally we read with each student for 15 minutes and today was no exception. The first little guy clearly had memorized his 2 books. One was "I Went Walking." I think we've read this book every time so far. Anyway, back to the student. He was adorable, as they all seem to be.

As we read, he kept making a muscle and eventually asked if I wanted to feel how strong he was. Who could resist? Then he kept flexing as we finished each page, changing the orientation of his fist from facing out to facing in and back again - obviously learned from someone older or seen on television. He stopped at one point to let me know that he works out, lifting weights and demonstrated that he lifts a kettle bell to. He was very excited to pick out two stickers: one candy corn that had on sunglasses and another that was sticking out its tongue. So cute!
