Book Review: Running with Scissors


I finished reading Running with Scissors on Saturday. I certainly would not say that I enjoyed reading it. It was very, very graphic and I felt like I had to come out of my "perfect world" bubble to finish reading it. My eyes were opened to lives that are very different than mine. I was uncomfortable reading it at times, but it made me grateful to have such a "normal" childhood.

Book Review: Eclipse

Oops! I haven't done a good job at blogging lately. It's been over a month since my last post. Yikes! I will try to do better.

I finished Eclipse last week. I liked it a lot better than New Moon, but not as much as Twilight. The tension between Bella and Edward was very strong and a bit annoying at times, but not so much that it caused me to stop reading. I'm looking forward to reading Breaking Dawn and finding out the end to this saga.

My Sweet Boy!

Will and I were cuddling in the recliner this morning and he was kissing me. I decided to blow him a kiss and see if he would blow me one. He grabbed my hand and kissed it!

Making Language Connections

Will surprises me every day.

One of his favorite books is an alphabet book called B is for Bear. He brings it to me to read at least 6 or 7 times a day. The line for the letter "V" is "V is for vegetables. Which ones should I buy?" He just waved "bye bye" to the vegetables when I said "buy."

Two Posts in One Day!

Today it was really nice outside, so I took the boys out for some fresh air after snack. Here are some pics from today:




Book Review: Black and Blue


I recently finished Black and Blue. I wouldn't say that I enjoyed the book: it was too depressing to say that. It was well-written, but I don't think I'll be reading it again.
