My son Thaxton LOVES it when I read books to him. He always takes books off the shelves and brings them to me to read. Sometimes we read a few of his books several times a day each! The other day his dad called out the name of a book he’s only had a for a week, and Thaxton gave this excited look. I told him the book was in his room. The next thing I knew he was crawling toward his room. I thought he’d bring back a random book or else get distracted by the toys in his room. But in a few moments he returned with the correct book in hand. (It was on an ottoman in his room stacked beneath 3 other books.) Needless to say, I was very impressed that a 13 month old was able to recognize and bring back the right book. I’m very excited at how much he loves to read, and I hope his love of reading continues!
This year I’ve decided to start a new feature on the blog, Thaxton’s Book Nook, where I’ll be sharing some of the books Thaxton and I are reading. It will give me the chance to give a little insight in to our days and what we are enjoying, and it will also give me the opportunity to recommend some good books for you guys and your kids!
