On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I post a picture and just a few words.
I’m pretty sure I could take a picture like this every summer day.
(Sonia in the same spot, doing the same thing.)
I am so blessed to have a house full of readers.
Sure, we encourage reading around here, but nurture can only do so much, and I realize that I shouldn’t take for granted that all four of mine have a reading nature that responds to nurture.

What a great picture! Makes me think of my childhood and makes me smile. The love of reading transcends age and time.

Zoe was JUST like that. As a toddler, I'd always find her sitting on the floor or in the bed with a big pile of books around her.
She ended up being a very early reader and I didn't have to do much work at all to teach her how to read. Maybe your youngest will be like that!

I bet you wish you had a few minutes to do something like that more often! :-)

Oh, yes. To have lots of free hours to just read? That would be epic.
I did get to do that when I was a kid, but now I have more responsibilities and much less free time!

I'll check with Joshua for more ideas, but I know he really enjoyed the Percy Jackson books.
