National Reading Day

Monday was National Reading Day, and we celebrate books BIG TIME around here. I offered to cancel all regular school work (usually 3-4 hours a day for Brishen) in exchange for 5 hours of reading. I offered a reward (trip to the movies) for 8 hours of reading. Brishen finished the day with 9 1/2 hours of reading! He gets a kiddie pack at the theater for that extra time he logged. Basia also gets to go to a movie, since she listened to 22 books on Monday. Read on!!

Hey, honey! Hooray for staring a blog.
It took me until the next day to join the family accomplishments and finish "The Poisonwood Bible," but, hey, it's hard to measure up to Brishen the Book Devourer!

I have read more books in the past year than I have the rest of my life. I will never be able to read fast, but at least I am making an effort. :) On one subject anyway. :) Great Job Brishen and Basia!

Brishen's Birthday, Too

  We were in Sacramento on Brishen's birthday, but we made it home to celebrate the next day.  He wanted green chile potato corn chowder...
