Another Reason Our Bookstore Trip was a Bust

Nothing warms the cockles of a mom (who-is-trying-to-teach-her-children) 's heart like having the oldest yell, "but I HATE TO READ" when you gently suggest she purchase some "Easy Readers" from the bookstore.

Well, I can't get my daughter to pick up a book at home but at school her teacher tells me how she always has her nose burried in a book during any free time....

I swear she has alter egos....

Aren't 7 year old's great?

Oh the joys of parenting. Maybe having a defiant toddler isn't so bad.

Ugh. Frustrating, huh?
My son goes in waves with wanting to read.
