A Little Reading

We had a bit of a leisurely morning yesterday, spending a few extra minutes in our pj's before we got going. Steven had just told me that he was ready to get dressed, and I told him I'd be just a minute. When I came to look for him, this is where I found him...
He was so engrossed that he didn't even realize I was standing there. When he realized I was taking a picture of him, he threw his head back and laughed, which of course resulted in a second picture!
I can't tell you how much I love that my kids love books so much - and that it starts so young! When the doctor was asking about Steven's development, she asked if he could turn pages in a book. In my mind I could just see him gently working his way through his favorite books again and again and again, one page at a time. It's a beautiful sight to me, and seeing it makes all of the "Mommy, will you please read one book to me?" interruptions totally worthwhile!

Sweet! That's exactly what we want to instill in our children as well. A love of reading!
