    03.06.08 Wait mom, I like to read books too!

    On any given night, usually before bath time this is a familiar shot (below). Poor Bubba trying to "go" on the potty and his way grown up sister reading him a book! It's the stuff that makes your heart MELT as a mom and makes you grateful you caught it on camera!
     

    Bubba, too, is finally coming around to reading. Before he just couldn't sit still. But now before naps, before baths, and before bed he loves to be read to. The greatest thing is that his new favorite is Eric Carle books. Even more amazing, is that he's the THIRD one in my clan. It started out 14 yrs ago as Erick's all time favorite, then we had them around still and they became Danielle's favorite when she was about 3. Now they are Bubba's. He has all but memorized the Caterpillar and the Cricket books. He finishes my sentences he knows the books so well. And the illustrations are amazing so it is fun! Hopefully he'll love reading as much as his big sis does!!

    Bubba,

    What a big boy you are on the potty! Yeah!! Can't wait for you to read me a book when I visit Montana or when you visit me by the ocean and butterflies!

    Love,
    Auntie Lynnette

    Look at big boy bubba! I hope that potty training is getting easier. That's great that you saved Erick's books and that they've been passed down. How sweet. I LOVE the pictures! Thanks for taking time to post them!
