Well, folks, I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day. After a weekend of Mother’s Day and birthday festivities, I’m pooped. It’s going to be a day of digging out from under a weekend of home neglect and my almost-five-year-old’s birthday goodies (which incidentally does include a few books 🙂 ). I’m not “taking the phone off the hook,” though, until I announce the winner of the Read Aloud Week book giveaway. . . .
Shelly!
Submitted on 2009/05/07 at 6:17pmWith my elementary aged daughter, we are nearly finished with “Meet Kirsten” from the American Girls series. These books make great bedtime read-alouds, as they stretch over one week just about perfectly.
We also finished “The Shakespeare Stealer” this week. A little tough for the young ones to follow, but the older ones (middle school) enjoyed it.
Shelly, I’ll be emailing you directly, and meanwhile, I hope you all have a marvelous Monday!

Happy belated Mother’s Day, Amy! Taking the phone off the hook sounds like a great way to celebrate.
