She’s Just Like Her Parents

The girl, age 11.

This could be a picture of me at her age, nose stuck in a book.

I’m so glad she’s a reader, like both her parents.

Better still, is the book she’s reading, a favorite of ours. It’s such a thrill to share beloved books with our kids, and have them appreciate them, too.

We spent part of the afternoon in a coffeeshop, she with her hot chocolate, me with a mocha, pleasantly reading, quietly passing the time together, doing what we love to do best.

    Coincidence? I think not.

    Orson Scott Card–what a great author. And it is a joy to share books with your children…I love the words, “Mom, let’s go snug and read together.” Right now we are fighting over Stephenie Myer’s Eclipse–I just wait for bedtime!
