Creating readers within my family is not only a goal of mine, but a passion as well. I'm documenting how quickly they are advancing, as evidenced here.

Madison loves reading just as much as we do. |
|
Zoe is trying really really hard to hold it up. |
|
Eli, already has his nose in a good book. I assume given who the author is, it's going to be good; I'll read it as soon as I finish my current read. |
|
I think he's trying to understand the lack of pictures. Or he's a speed reader. ;) |

And me. I would have added my husband, too, but he wasn't home. |
Obviously, unless you really think my three-year-old is quite advanced, they aren't really reading Raven Boys. I do hope someday, though, they will be interested in reading it, or any book for that matter. I'll be honest, I took the pictures for a giveaway Maggie Stiefvater, author of Raven Boys and one of my favorite books, The Scorpio Races, was doing. But then I thought, there's more to this than that. They turned in a glimpse of what I hope for my children's future, and Madison's, if she had the capability. I do think she enjoys listening to stories being read, though. She will come into Eli's room at bedtime with us. I like to think it's for the story; allow me that delusion, please.

Much better than my hastily taken, somewhat fuzzy pic where my cat was trying to *knock over* my kindle (out of love, I assume ...). I'm sure Madison is there for the stories. What else? ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Now I just have to get mine in the mail. :) And I do imagine Maddie loves the stories. Truth be told, I used to read to her before I had kids. Poor puppy has been putting up with me for quite a while. lol
