There is nothing quite like the pride and joy of knowing you have passed on the love of reading, the love of books, onto your child.

Will he read to me. Nope. Will he let me read to him. Absolutely not. Which when I think about it, is really annoying in some ways, but then again, I’m not a big fan of someone reading my books to me either, so maybe the apple didn’t fall far from the tree after all.

Right now, his favorite book is a book on flags. He has informed me that he is going to go to all the places the flags represent. I better start saving up now, or the next lottery better be mine to win. He has big dreams of all the places he wants to go….all the things he wants to see, and I love it. I love how books have encouraged his imagination to flourish and grow….even if he hoards his books and won’t share with me. lol

Until next week….Happy Reading
