What a great Sunday! Miraculously my entire family read at the same time for 2
hours. It literally rain the entire day and after running errands all morning,
everyone was exhausted. The baby went straight to sleep which gave me the
opportunity to catch up on my summer reading. I believe the reason why I had
such great success is that I did not attempt to schedule this.
For the most part, I try to provide a print rich environment for my family. Therefore, someone is always reading something. Once everyone settled in, I became aware that everyone was reading. Instead of vegging out on my mindless Bravo shows, I turned off the tv and grabbed my novel. Had I scheduled this moment, it would not have been a natural progression. And, I like the fact that this just happened. I am a happy Mom.
