Happy Friday, Bibliophiles

It really warms my heart that, these days, when I have to assemble my big bag of can't-fail items to keep Josephine happy on a long car ride (which is anything longer than 20 minutes to her, unfortunately), at least 75% of those items I know will make her happy are BOOKS.



Okay, there are also a lot of snacks in there. She is my daughter, after all. And if there's one thing I've learned from monitoring my own behavior having a toddler, it's that if you think you have enough snacks, you DON'T. Pack more. Then pack even more.


But the books, you guys. She loves books. And I love that.

  1. Soon she will be begging you for spelling tests!

    I had an English teacher for a parent as well. One of my favourite things to do was spelling tests and grammar lessons. I would get home from school and ask for more homework.

    My parents loved it too, until I grew up and started beating them at Scrabble.

    1. Ba ha! I did the same thing. I asked for extra homework at school and then more at home! I love talking to other nerds. :)

    1. It's the truth, isn't it? Sometimes when we're away from home it's the only cure for what ails her! :) And no prob -- I hope it's better this time, too! Glad to know things, while crazy, are going well for you this time. :)
