Describing Abby's excitement on Friday is hard to capture. She had worked so hard the first half of school to read and read and read and take AR test after AR test to earn her Library Card at school. She had to earn 25 points to receive her Library card which gives you some sort of special privileges in the school library that I'm not totally aware of. This was a big, big deal for this girl. She told me, "Mom, when my teacher gave me my card I had tears of happiness." I asked her to explain this a little more to me and she told me all about how this was the best day of her life and when her teacher gave her her card, she had tears well up in her eyes. She is so proud of herself for working so hard. She had to take many tests because all of the books she was reading. So it was at least 50 tests that she took on books she had read. Now she is an awesome reader! Her goal is to get 50 points by the end of the year.
