Storytime!!!
I love this time of the day. I have a 2 year old and I babysit a 4 year old and everyday we have storytime. The stories vary, right now they are mostly about Halloween. I do throw in alot of “showing emotions” books too along with educational ABC’s and 123 books. I am an avid reader. I get lost in my books. I solve crimes in my books and I live someone else’s life in my books. Not that my life is truly dull and I need to run away from it….ok maybe sometimes I do. I like to live someone else’s life for 354 pages and then return to my own. My dear hubby thinks I am wasting time reading so much, but then hey I could hang out in bars and such with the time that I read. I probably over dramatize the children’s books especially when it looks like one of the kids is getting bored. I believe that reading is so important and when the 4 year old’s parents ask me about different things he say and I explain that it is from this book or that one I think they like that. Well at least I hope so. Ooh I have 15 minutes left before nap time is over I can get a few more pages of my most recent book done. Happy reading!
