I love to read and it is one of my favorite pastimes. I hope to pass this tradition on to my children. It is a routine thing right now to read stories before naptime and bedtime. I know Hafen really likes it and I do too. A few nights ago I was holding Hafen and Hudson on my lap while reading stories. Hafen was listening intently and the cutest thing happened. Hudson started reading too. Unbelievable, I know. For all you skeptics out there I know how it must sound. He would talk when I did and when I paused he would pause. Now, I know that you might think me foolish, but it was so fun and cute that I couldn’t believe it. He has done it several times since then and I love it! He did it again tonight while Cory was reading to them. I think I have a genuine reader on my hands. Maybe I will learn his language someday.
The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience. -- Eleanor Roosevelt
