and ordered it for the boys' bedroom.
i know right where it will go...
on the bookshelf between their two twin beds.

every day this little poster will remind
us that books expand our world,
introduce us to people
and take us to new places.
tonight, while the boys and i were reading this book before bed,
we were transported back to the civil war period.
we met clara barton, who was known as the angel of the battlefield.
we also learned about the youngest boy, at age 11 to enlist.
his job: a drummer boy. {the boys found this fascinating}
i've come to love the magic treehouse series just as much as the boys.
there are 48 total books now in the series, and we are on book #21.
we plan on reading every single one of them.
on a completely different note, i spent my entire ride home from work talking with christi mac tonight.
{also known as the 'world's best nanny' to the gerber family}
it was so fun to hear about her life as a newlywed.
oh how we miss her cheery disposition and optimism.
i let her know the gerbers haven't forgotten her a bit.
finn still points out places around town she used to take them. yes, this lady left an imprint on our family.
i'm hoping portland will bring sunshine to her soon.
{she tells me she is anxious for it} if not, she is always welcome to stay in sunny san diego |
