Reading Routine

One of my very favorite things is listening to Jaclyn read to Donovan.

Reading to Donovan, Peanut Butter the snake and Blue Kitty. 

It’s quite a production. Jac insists that they both be in our bed, under the covers, usually with the blanket heater on. Jac always sits on Pop’s side with her special flower pillows behind her back; Donovan is in the middle cuddled up to me on the far side. 

Donovan is in charge of picking the books, usually while Jac finishes her math homework. Today’s selection was Sneezy The Snowman, a Christmas gift from his kindergarten teacher. Jac used to complain (loudly!) about her daily reading homework but now we all look forward to it. Making memories.
