Today I got emotional...that's not an uncommon thing for me right now due to the pregnancy, but today I wanted to share the reason I got emotional.
We were doing our usual family home evening and Salem updated the FHE chart to assign himself to do the lesson and the scripture.
1. He read one verse of scripture; just like he usually does for his bedtime routine. He's getting better and better at reading the hard words every day.
2. For the lesson he got the children's Book of Mormon Stories and read to us the chapter about Nephi building the ship. I was a hesitant at first about him reading it since I figured I'd have to help him a lot and he'd get frustrated. I ended up only helping him with only 2 or 3 words and he read the rest himself! After the first few picture captions I just broke out in hysterical tears which quickly turned into a chuckling laugh because I pictured how ridiculous I must have been, yet I was laughing from being overjoyed.
Geez pregnancy does a lot of crazy stuff to you...but I am very proud of Salem for learning to read so well, good work!

It's always so exciting when they start to read. I know about being hyper emotional when pregnant. Ryan would say that I still haven't recovered from it.
