Avid Readers

Well it has finally happened.  Yep that time in your life where you wonder what you want to do and then you think "I'm gonna read".

I have completed about 10 books in the last month, Darryl has gotten through probably 4, Kiya has started the Harry Potter series and is on book 3, and Mylee is eating books up just like a bookworm.  She has started to read the Magic Treehouse Series and loves it. 

It is nice to sit on the back deck with a glass of wine, my book and my kids sitting beside me with a book or ereader in their hand and enjoying the quiet.  I have always found reading important, I also get lost in the story and don't go to bed on time, but that's another issue for another day.  I have my summer list, slowly crossing them off, but I love the classics and can reread anything by Jane Austen or the Bronte sisters over and over again. 

Whether it is reading to my children, reading for personal fulfillment, or re-educating myself with some new books that help me understand my class better, I love to read.  I think that is a family trait, most of my family are avid readers and I am so glad that Darryl and I passed that on to our children.
