Today the boys and I got to spend the day with Karin, Addi, and Lauren.

Apparently they thought I said, "give me your serious look" instead of "say cheese!" |

I love when Jamesie gets to spend time with any of his cousins. What a precious bond.

I am not a big reader. I mean, I don't often curl up with a good book or anything like that. I just don't make the time to. Maybe because I read so many jillions of books a day to the boys that when it comes to my own down-time, reading isn't at the top of my list. But I have heard SO much about this book lately that I had to get it and I plan on starting it tonight. Heaven Is For Real by Todd Burpo. My precious friend Erin was the latest person to recommend it and that is why I got it. She and I have so much in common. She is such a sweet blessing to me.
The other two books I got today in the mail from Amazon are Bringing Up Boys and The New Dare To Discipline both by Dr. James Dobson.
Every single time I get on Amazon I end up buying too many books that I never read...or never finish. I guess I would like to think that I am a more dedicated reader than I really am. I like the idea of being a book lover, but at the end of the day, I'm just not. I don't have the time. And I always think to myself, "if you are sitting here spending time reading...why aren't you reading your Bible???" Guilt trip. And then if I get past that, I would much rather be reading a cookbook or cooking/food magazine than anything fictional. I've always been so hesitant to say all of that out loud but there it is. Judge me if you want. But I am committed to finishing these 3 books.
Time to start reading.

So apparently I need to read your blog from the bottom up instead of reading from the top down and then having to delete comments that are not true, lol!!!!! Silly me.
