Tonight Younger Boy decided to do his homework.

What?  In the middle of spring break week.

First he used our electric pencil sharpener to sharpen EVERY pencil we have in our home.  Then he took a break to play with some transformers.

He did a little bit of reading.

One of his assignments was to read out loud to me.  He read me a story about Neptune.  He really struggled to get through the whole thing.  He was also reading to Middle Boy who was being very respectful.  He even volunteered to listen to him read it again if he wanted to.  He didn't.

Younger Boy actually stopped part way through to tell me he needs to be a better reader. 

Maybe we will switch to him reading the Bible story each night for his practice.

Praises for him taking some initiative toward school work tonight.
