I've been fortunate that both my boys love reading, even the baby like to be read to. <BR/><BR/>My 7 yr old has actually driven me crazy reading everything from billboard advertisings to ingredients on products in the grocery store. As much as I want to tell him "Boy, I don't have time to hear you read that nonsense!" I slow my roll and patiently listen....breathe<BR/><BR/>We started reading to both from conception. The Hubster would read to my belly and it was a truly bonding experience.Quiskaeyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06669432995380824321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7368904647802764772.post-30772957526682658862009-03-03T14:06:00.000-05:002009-03-03T14:06:00.000-05:00I love reading--that's the only reason why I was a...I love reading--that's the only reason why I was an English major!

It's so nice to take a break from adult work and sit on the floor and read to kids.

Miss J loves sitting in her Dora chair, in her room, surrounded by her books, trying to figure out the words on her own, and reading and re-reading the books that she does know over and over again. We actually found a Brown Bear, Brown Bear birthday card in the store yesterday as we were shopping for a card for one of her friends. They had the nerve to have the card in the "boys" section. I'm thinking, "wow, why place it here? Brown Bear, Brown Bear is my daughter's FAVORITE book of like, all time, and I am coming back to get this card and save it for her birthday in June". <BR/><BR/>I smile every time you share a picture of Mekhi enjoying one of his books. You can tell that he is in love with them and that is a beautiful thing =)Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00020031746525080078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7368904647802764772.post-73476623240180927142009-03-02T13:32:00.000-05:002009-03-02T13:32:00.000-05:00I love this post and I love reading.
