101 Books

My kids are participating in the summer reading program at our library. It really turned out to be an awesome program, as there were a lot of free coupons received. To pass all 3 prize levels, the kids had to read a total of 50 books each, which is a pretty substantial goal. My goal, however, was to read 100 books to each of them. Today, Sydney passed her 100 book goal, with a total of 2946 pages (you'd be surprised at how long some of those kids books are!). Congrats, Sydney!
