Parents

My parents came to visit this past weekend for the end of my mom's Fall Break. It was so fun anticipating them coming and then getting to show off the house and spend time with them. We got to do some shopping on Saturday and my mom in her wonderful teacher form bought Jeremiah some children's books. There are some very cute books out there and it was so fun to wonder and think about which ones will become his favorites.

I had a few favorites as a child-
Hiram's Red Shirt
The Little Red Car
Emily's Moo
The Pokey Little Puppy
The Purple Crayon

And I'm sure there were others that I am forgetting.

What were some of your favorite books as a child or books that are favorites to read to your children?

Hey Emily,
I have just read your more recent posts and I wanted to let you know that I am praying girl! I want so badly for this to work for you. I am so thankful that you are at peace with whatever happens. That's half your battle right there! I am confident that God will supply all your needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus. AND...I wanted to let you know that there are some rocking board books by a lady named Sandra Boynton. They're funny and my little one has liked them from an early age. His favorite is called Red Hat, Green Hat.
