Naps & Books

"I'm so tired mom, but I'm NOT taking a nap." Collin says this pretty much on a daily basis.

I tell him it's time for quite time and then he says "I'm NOT going to my room." But he goes. Halfway up the stairs he asks me to read him stories and then he ends up falling asleep during the 2nd story.

BOOKS

I tell you the boy loves books. He loves to be read to and he loves to look at books by himself and "read" them. All the time I will walk by his room and I hear him "reading" a book. He knows the main jest of the books and has some of them memorized.

Last week I took him to the library. As we are walking in he tells me "mom, be quite as a mouse at the library." We go to the kids section and he picks out more books than I can carry. Then he wants to sit in the little kid chairs and read the books at the library. It was so cute.

The next day he goes to school and he tells all of his teachers "I went to the library and got books about dinosaurs." We are so glad that he loves books and hope that he will keep it up as he gets older.
