These are the books on my nightstand/coffee table/bathroom shelf right now. We've had 2 good days and nights in a row of sleep and the food ones are just for recipes so I hope I can retire this pile for some more "entertaining" reading soon.
Matthew is sharing some funny parts of the latest Wimpy Kid book he's reading with Drew and I. He got up at 6am yesterday and read most of it before school. He can't wait for the movie to come out next week. I love it although it can also be a huge distraction for him (wonder where he gets that from???)
We've gone back to doing daily quiet time (with quiet reading) before having any tv time in the afternoon. C and Marlee are both into "reading" chapter books!
We went to the library and joined readopoly. This should go along nicely with summer bingo.
I finished this book today. What an experience. I'm not sure why but ever since I saw the episode on polygamy on Oprah it has just intrigued me. How can anyone follow this lifestyle - but it really is about the upbringing. Still, a very interesting read.
We stopped at the library to get a book being held for me and checked out the dinosaur books (Matt is studying them right now in his class). It's just a tad disturbing that out of all the books (maybe 50?) there was one series (of 5) that only says that dinosaurs "lived a long time ago". All the rest say "millions of years ago". And then there was the "origin of man/ early beings" section right beside it. Don't get me started. I asked about finding any dinosaur books from a Christian perspective and she could only direct me to the dinosaur section in general. I guess she doesn't get that question very much. Marlee was interested in the mouse on one of the pages.
