Reading Books




I finished! Loved the series. It has been fun watching Rachel read Twilight. She is so excited. This is her first "big" novel. Isaac and Shaun also liked the series, but Zach makes fun of us all because its not his thing. When I was a kid I loved to read, but lost interest while I was in high school. I didn't really start reading again until Shaun gave me the first three books in the "Work and The Glory" series. I read all three in a couple of days. Then I had lots of little ones and didn't read as often as I would have liked. Way too tired at night. Lately I have rediscovered that I LOVE to read. Reading way too much. Trying now to find some balance. I have also just finished the "Great and Terrible Series". Another fantastic series. Hoping to get my boys to read it this year. It was very thought provoking. I have discovered that this TV girl actually prefers reading to watching tv. It is a lot more fun!!!

Tayler started Breaking Dawn yesterday. I was going to skip Twilight and Eclipse and just read Breaking Dawn with her. She insisted I would miss too much. So now I really have to buckle down and read to catch up. I read some of my Sheri Dew and thought I would just read that in the morning with scripture study time and read Twilight in the evening. The kids are all reading much more now on their own and the little ones are excited to have their reading time together. I thought of letting Tanner listen to Harry Potter on CD. I put it on hold. Did Matthew read that one yet? Maybe they could read it together? Let me know! Have a great trip!!
