I forget that we are due at nearly the same time, and we have the same wedding anniversary (although we are just five years this june).
yeah, we joke about getting each other presents, but I'm like "im growing you a baby" instead.
reading aloud to peter is one of my plans once we get moved. looking forward to reading books and things i like instead of having to sit through dr suess, because I really dont like dr suess (no real justified reason, I just never liked the books)
huh, I forgot about the shared anniversary! we never get each other anything, our present to each other is always a dinner out :)
I have never been a fan of reading picture books to my kids. i don't even know why.. every once in a great while, I'll do it, but it doesn't excite me the way reading chapter books does. we started out light--EB White's trio, stuart little, the trumpet of the swan, and charlotte's web. Germaine was 5 and Linus was 4, and the others weren't really listening yet. of course, we went deeper after that. I remember Treasure Island was in that first year, and I also remember there were parts of it I didn't even understand.. but they both begged to hear some every night!
