Distracted By Books
I've talked before about what a little bookworm my 7-year-old daughter is. She reads constantly, running through dozens of books each month. She stashes books in the car, the bathrooms, the kitchen - everywhere - just so she will never be without one. Sound familiar?
I'm still chuckling. How many times do we bookworms get so distracted by our reading that housework goes undone, kids get ignored, and work falls by the wayside? I think my daughter knows what she's talking about: If we carted all the books out of our houses, we'd have so much time for other things. But, where's the fun in that? Who wants to scrub toilets when adventure awaits inside a book? I'm tempted to let her lounge on her unmade bed and read all day, but that's how she got herself into this (literal) mess in the first place. What's the bookworm mom of a bookworm child to do? I'm sure there's a book on the subject out there somewhere ...
And Now, The Post You've All Been Waiting For ...
all, thanks to everyone for making this such a successful giveaway. I received more comments on Michelle Moran's interview post than on any other post I've ever written. Wow. I loved watching all the comments add up. It's so much fun for me to know that you read - and enjoy - my little blog.Alright, enough of the chit chat. Let's get on to the good stuff! Drumroll, please ...
