We've been spending some of our family 'awake time' reading children's books to Maggie. Carey and I both love to read and consider books to be at the forefront of learning and knowledge.

There are lots of good stories that keep all of us quite entertained. Like this one:
THERE WAS A LITTLE GIRL
There was a little girl, and she had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead;
When she was good, she was very, very good,
But when she was bad, she was horrid.
Nice, huh? These books aren't filled with fluff and kittens like I expected. They get right to the action and don't mince words concerning the desired moral. I won't tell you the story of "Teddy's thoughts on alcohol and drugs."

...especially because this shot of our bookcase was taken before I could prep the frame (oops!):

And here are some gratuitous shots of our lovely daughter for all of you since I've been so lax in posting this last week:

Love, love, love all these pics!
Carey and Maggie look like they are really enjoying storytime...that last picture of Maggie is the first "girly girl" picture I have seen - you know what I mean? Keep em' coming!
Love, Gina and Michael
Okay, I really am going to eat her for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack. I can't stand it!! The hands, the hair....line, um and everything else about her. Those perky eyes and little face....she's too cute for words. She looks so soft and snuggly.
I miss those days. It goes by WAY too fast....doesn't it??
I LOVE YOU MAGGIE!!

Woohoo!! Thanks for posting. YOu all look so happy and healthy!! Thanks for the super cute pictures. Maggie-gal is getting so big- alert and attentive. Wonderful. We missed you at book club last night.
My Gramma Billie used to say that rhyme to me...I still remember it to this day-a good reminder for good behavior.
Love the new pictures! She looks so grown up already in that last picture! Miss you and hope all is well. The birth announcement is great! I'll have to recruit you to "invent" our next one- we're running out of ideas! Love ya and hope to see you soon, Amy
we really like the one where you are reading to her Carey, she is looking so intense at the book. Gotta love it. papa and grandma
You can never start the reading too early. Thanks for posting such great pics. Can't wait for you to come visit us in the mountains! Love, Sarah
Maggie...we miss seeing you! Please explain to your mama and daddy that you have a fan club and we are anxious to see some new pics of you!!!
Love, Titia
ps...sorry...I usually hate when people talk to parents through their kid....oh, well!
You two don't stand a chance, I can tell who's in charge. It is amazing how much power is packaged in that precious little bundle o love.
