So last Christmas Brighton received these set of books called BOB books. They are early readers to help you get started with the whole reading on your own process. We hadn't been too diligent at reading them until Brighton started preschool this year (It doesn't help that B gets frustrated VERY easily so sitting down and having her struggle through words was the last thing I ever wanted to do.). When we finally decided to buckled down and get to it, the frustration set in and it was not an enjoyable thing. So we decided to give her an incentive. We told her that if she finished all 12 of her BOB books (and could read them well) by the time the new movie Tangled came out, we'd all go to the drive in. This girl thrives on incentives so after the deal was on the table it took her less than a month to get through them. She was focused and motivated. And I am happy to say we had one of the best family nights watching Brighton's new favorite movie. I'm so proud of my little girl!
