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.

Alright, “Ender’s Game.” I see your starting her off well.

Great kid.
Great books.
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!
