Friday ... How are you doing?

It's been the first week after New Year's. How are you holding up? Keeping those resolutions? House all packed up and Christmas tucked away? Kids starting to get back into routine after many parties, events and very late nights? Kids love a schedule. It calms them when there are rules and boundaries. That is why reading is such an important habit to instill into them. When you daily read aloud to your child at bedtime you establish a bond that will last a lifetime. The power and love expressed through reading together is priceless. When your world is chaotic and full of turmoil a book can be the very thing to set your world right. I encourage you to read for yourself and with your kids. Of all your resolutions please don't dis guard this one. Read on like your life depends on it!
