8.19.2009

another sign that summer is coming to an end.
barnes & nobles summer reading club.
each boy read 8 books.
each boy received a free book.
nice choices guys.
we're proud of y'all.
we loved finding you curled up in a big
chair reading just because.
we loved having quiet time were
everyone read together in the great room.
we loved all our quick trips to the library
because the book you reserved finally was available.
we loved when you compared books to the
movie version.
we loved that you realized that award
winning books are truly good books.
we loved that you ventured out of your
regular authors and tried some new ones.
we loved that you asked to reserve
wimpy kid #4 already even though
its not due out for months.
we loved that you can spend hours walking around
a library/a book store just looking.
we loved that you realize reading comes in
other forms like the daily newspaper
and magazines.
(yes, we check magazines out of the library - very green)
we hope we have given you one of the
best tools to live/learn/enjoy by -
the joy of reading!
