well, as i have had time to visit my arizona family, we have started a little tradition. it includes BARNES & NOBLE and sonic! (don't worry, sonic usually happens RIGHT before dinner...and you can get a LARGE shake just don't tell mom!) everyone is allowed to choose one book and sometimes two when you look at me with "the eyes". one thing i love about all the moms in our family is that they have encouraged their children to love books, the library and reading! and i love helping that love of books.
so those arizona kids are crazy readers...they got out of school on thursday, headed to the library on monday and jonah has already finished two books! shocker i know! so a few weeks ago i thought it might be fun to send them a summer reading list and have a little contest. really it is so that I will get back to reading (i have been slacking...and i want to be like jonah!) so really this is a selfish endeavour. and there is no one to push you to be better like little people!
well i knew this wouldn't be such a challenge for jonah, so i decided it would be fun to start jonah a book review blog. how fun is that?! he can read, then review and then i will know what to read. and he will read and review and practice writing for the day he becomes a big author! i can't wait to see books through his eyes. i have added his blog link to our blog...so watch jonah read!
(and as a side note, if jonah becomes super famous from his blog and gets invited to be on oprah; i get to sit on the stage with him because i was the super cool aunt that got the idea to start the blog! yes, also a selfish endeavour!)
