I really hate when Ryan forgets to bring things home. He never brought home the stuff for me to order his school pictures. So then it totally slipped my mind until yesterday when my Mother started screaming about tomorrow being retake day. Ryan said he’d ask for the package in school today but of course he didn’t. So I had to email his teacher. Now I have no idea how the heck I’m going to do this.

Ryan ended up going trick or treating with my cousins this Halloween. He had a lot of fun. He planned on being a shark but at the last minute decided to be a soldier. He already had a uniform from the army navy store anyway. I kept trying to take pictures of his costume on one of my cameras but he kept covering his face. He dislikes having his picture taken. This was the only one I could get and he’s making a goofy face. I was really glad that Halloween was so warm this year! Some years it’s freezing. Sometimes it even snows here.

I have a lot of trouble getting my son to read. He just doesn’t like to. He doesn’t even like being read to. He’s supposed to read every night for 15 minutes for homework. But it’s near impossible to get him to ever do it. Last week he brought home one of the iary of a Wimpy Kid” books and he liked it a lot. He’s been actually reading it with me. It’s nice to finally have something to write down on his nightly reading chart. I’m going to order him the rest of the series as soon as I can.  The books are written really cute. It’s like a diary with pictures drawn in it. The paper is even lined.
