While we were home for Christmas, my sister cleaned out her kids' books and gave us a big box. I mean it's big. There are probably 20 Mercer Mayer books, preschool workbooks, first readers, sticker books, coloring books...you name it, it's in there. This is the gift that keeps on giving. Big Sissy is as excited about this box of books as any gift she got for Christmas. The wonderful doggy with green spots is already forgotten (sorry, Santa!). I think he's buried in a pile of books. So listen up, boys. (Yes, I'm talking to you, Asher, J.J., the Bailey boys--anyone who might be interested in 15 years or so. LOL.) If you ever want to win this girl's heart, skip the diamonds. Forget the chocolate (except for the occasional Snack Pack chocolate pudding). This girl is going to fall in love for books. Oh, and whoever marries her might want to invest in a little lamp and bedside table...
She can't help it. She's MY Beauty. :)

She's my kind of girl!!! Is it bad that I re-read all the Mercer Mayer books before handing them off? I'm so glad she loves them!!!
It runs in the family. I had to smile because when 2 cousins and I stayed the night at Mom & Dad's Christmas night, we all had a lamp on & something to read before bed, even though it was VERY late!
Awww... Asher got Gracie books for her birthday!! Does that count for anything?? :)
Asher loves to read too! He is working on memorizing "Inch by Inch" and his new Cars book. He loves One Fish, Two Fish.. he has the first four pages of that one memorized too... he he.
Uh oh- well, JJ likes books but is not IN LOVE with books..hmmm... However, I'm glad I didn't comment earlier b/c now we learned that Little Sissy loves The Little Catepillar and that would be one of JJ's favorite books! Asher- maybe we can compromise ;)
