A long, long time ago when I was in school my favorite books to read were autobiographies. I know a long word which means books about the life stories of people. May be this is where my love for family history began?
When you dads were young boys, grandma would bring them to the library to choose which books they would like to read. Some would like stories about dogs called SPOT, others would like adventure books, Crazy George stories or Munsch books. What are some of your favorites?
During babysitting I have brought Makayla or Aden to the library sometimes. I wish I had taken pictures of these special outings, but I did find a short video of reading time with Grandpa Thomas, as Aden would call him at the time:)
Perhaps Marc and Brooke still have this book it was about a grandma pirate! It would be fun to read to Chase, Emery and Brandon:) I'm sure Grandma can find a different one if that one is not available.
I have read a few books which I think Makayla, Aden, Landon, Samantha and Lincoln who are all in school would really enjoy, so I'd like to begin a new tradition - "Reading Time with Grandma"! Our first book will be The Legend of the Lamp by Tina Monson. This book will be read to any of you who are interested. We'll read only a few chapters at a time. It's a really neat adventure about a special lamp.
Having said all of this, if you have a most favorite book I'd love it if you shared it with me. You could bring it over and we could read them as well:)
Oh! I wish I could tell you more but I don't want to spoil it by saying who's lamp this was!? It did belong to someone who you all know about. Sh!!! no guessing. Let the story begin ......
I hope I have told each one of you how precious you are to me and grandpa Tom,
WE L - 0 - V - E YOU.
