Secret Reader

Today I had the opportunity to read a story to Hannah's class.  I was their Secret Reader!  Hannah was shocked when I showed up to her class and you could tell she was wondering why in the heck I was there. 

The teacher selected two books and I got to choose which one I wanted to read.  So, I chose a book about a family of three little girls that wanted nothing more than a real baby doll for Christmas.  It was a sweet story and in the end they got the doll.  What I wasn't expecting was the singing part in the book.  Yes, I actually sang a line or two of "You are my sunshine, my little sunshine". I was completely mortified and could feel the sweat running down my back, but I kept my composure and finished the book.

When we were finished and the teacher asked Hannah if she liked having her mom come to read to them, her little face was beat red.  We teased her a bit and then I thanked the class for letting me come read to them.  They all said they liked my reading voice and my singing and to please come again.  It was really neat.
