Reading

Like most little kids, Nathan and Elizabeth are really into reading and books. Nathan's at the point where he's got a lot of books memorized so he "reads" them all the time. Well, since he is doing this, guess who else wants to do the same thing? They read all the time.
In this picture, they were reading books in Annie and Clarabelle (Thomas the Tank Engine's coaches). Boxes make great coaches!
Our house always has books strewn all over. I can't keep up with the mess of books in this house. I suppose it's a good thing though. Who can complain about their kids reading too many books?
This past week, we were denied checking out any more books from the library as we already had our limit of 40. We brought back about 20 so we were allowed to check out more. The librarians don't complain (out loud anyway...). They say we're great library patrons.
But honestly we read a lot because it's just so easy to do. Plus, it's free. I hope the kids will always love reading. I'm sure at some point they won't love reading as much, but for now, they are great readers!
