LMAO!!!! That was a t...Are you calling me a dummy?<br /><br />LMAO!!!! That was a test to see if any if you would catch it! Cindy, you pass with flying colors! A+ for you sister!<br /><br />P.S. Just checked our library... they do have a book called, Everyday Math for Dummies... just added it to my hold list. Apparently I could use it!Damn I don't know if I can manage 4+ books per month. Guess I should revise that number!DTFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11562122716433613939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272344218333597715.post-59070811035497458682007-01-16T22:50:00.000-06:002007-01-16T22:50:00.000-06:00You know I've been puzzling over that number all d...You know I've been puzzling over that number all day: like a mild toothache but I was too mathematically challenged and lazy to work it out :) Go Cindy! I'll borrow that book after you finish it Carrie!

And there's more than one to some pages.. I was shocked at how many new books I've read since the summer. Especially, like Janet, I often read old fav's when I need a comfort fix.<br /><br />S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272344218333597715.post-85592008910579223312007-01-16T04:58:00.000-06:002007-01-16T04:58:00.000-06:00Janet...

K#3 and I are currently reading together (out loud) The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo and K#2 wants to do the next out loud book, Kingdom Keepers. K#2 also has two books lined up for me to read... Dawn Undercover (Because I told her an idea for a story I had but was stuck on some details and she said this would be an awesome book to help me with it) and the next she wants me to read is The Silver Child, by Cliff McNish (which she says is just a GREAT book.)<br /><br />R&R...we did the same with all 3 kids, but for K#1, it took him a long time to enjoy reading. And it's only come about in the last two years... he absolutely has to have a book that interests him and holds his attention. He just finished James Patterson's, Angel Experiment series. He loved these so much that he read the second one in 5 days - completely unheard of for him! Now he is reading a book called, The Black Tattoo. <br /><br />I guess now I will have to keep on reading and post about it.DTFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11562122716433613939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272344218333597715.post-25237357868671937352007-01-15T22:33:00.000-06:002007-01-15T22:33:00.000-06:00Only one of my kids truly loves reading like I do....Only one of my kids truly loves reading like I do. It makes me feel like a failure somehow. I did it all "right" - reading to and with them from the get-go, making it pleasurable time together, yet the other two think of reading as some form of torture. It's great your girls share with you and that you're open to their suggestions. <br /><br />Reading time is well-deserved YOU time...enjoy! I'll be watching for your blogs about it. : )R&Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04281438331272215636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272344218333597715.post-45078459677803648412007-01-15T20:53:00.000-06:002007-01-15T20:53:00.000-06:00Fascinating Carrie -- Christmas finds me almost al...Fascinating Carrie -- Christmas finds me almost always re-reading: needing that comfort zone of the tried and true. What books do your children want to share with you? My three children are all very different but there are a few authors all three have enjoyed and it's a kind of family glue :)<br /><br />That would make such a great blog ... and I'm just emerging from my Christmas reading hibernation: I reserved 4 new books at the library yesterday!Janet Webbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388267119996768657noreply@blogger.com
