At our house we have been reading aloud to the kids before bedtime since they were babies. As they got older we had trouble with them being interested in what we read and they stopped paying attention. Enter Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone...and nighttime reading has not been the same. I look forward to reading these books aloud (we are on the 3rd one now) and the kids are totally sucked in and thrilled with the stories. I have a new and deep appreciation for the Hogwarts crew and have enjoyed the movies that follow the books. Reading aloud as a family is such a great part of each day...I hope our kids will always let us read to them.
Inspired by the 365grateful project by Hailey Bartholomew. I began this blog on February 28, 2014, my 46th birthday, and challenged myself to take a few moments from each day (for 365 days) to reflect on something I am grateful for, something that brings me joy or makes me smile. Mission accomplished. Then 4 years whooshed by and I have started up all this good stuff again at age 51. Here goes...the goal is at least a gratitude post each week. Cheers!
