How to get your kids to love reading....Love it yourself!Pile up in the bed with your grammy.
Have on your jammies and smell fresh and clean.
Do a little fighting for the place closest to the one who is reading.
Become quickly mesmerized by a book you have had read to you a hundred times already.
One of you go get grammy's glasses because the words blur without them.
I have to get the words right because they have memorized the book and will call me on every mistake.
Leave plenty of time for some horseplay....giggling.....more fighting.....and a kiss or two.
I just finished reading The Johnstown Flood by David McCullough. It met every need I have for weather related thrillers.
This is the funny part....at Christmas David and Erika gave me an old, out of print book about weather related diasters. I read it while I had the pneumonia. For my birthday they gave me the book I mentioned above. I read that one during this present illness.
I would warn.....no more weather related books, they only cause me to get sick. (just kidding, of course, keep them coming!)
To spring!!!! Rejoice in the seasons of life!
Love, Cathy
