Books

I went over to visit my daughter and her family this afternoon. Two year old Julianna was tired and ready for a nap. She was clinging to her mother and crying and giving me dirty looks. Every time I looked at her she'd turn her head away and say "no!"  Then suddenly she slid off her mom's lap went to the book shelf and got a book and climbed up onto my lap, happy as could be. That last maybe two minutes.

I'm very happy to be known to my grandchildren as the grandma who reads them books. If I can give them the gift of loving to read, it will be one of my greatest accomplishments.
