We took a down day yesterday to do laundry, tidy up and just hang out. DD stayed in her pjs until 2:30. Yikes! She read me a story based on the old Henny Penny "the sky is falling" tale. This story had a much nicer ending. Instead of being eaten by the sly fox, he merely pointed out that apples were falling, NOT the sky, so they all decided to make apple pie. So we did too. We will always follow a good idea.
Today we went downtown to a reading festival sponsored by a local university. It was a beautiful day, so she just moved from one reading circle to the next. After DD listened to 6 stories (and posted the requisite stickers), she was able to select four books: four brand new, excellent, wonderful FREE books. We did not win any of the raffle prizes, which totally bummed her out, but I reminded her to focus on the big prize: FREE BOOKS. Did I mention that they were free????
