Reading time is at a premium as a mom. I have to sacrifice something, somewhere and it often is that pleasure reading time. If I do read it is about parenting, homeschool, devotionals, etc.. Whatever happened to some good fiction in my life? The mindless adventures or even the literary greats?! Well, I am sure there will be a season for them again (perhaps further into our homeschool journey).
For now, I thought I'd put a few titles out there that I'm really enjoying right now or recently:
1. The God of All Comfort - H.W. Smith
2. Tramp for the Lord - Corrie ten Boom
3. Created to be His Help Meet - Debi Pearl
4. One Thousand Gifts - Ann Voskamp
5. Homeschool Enrichment Magazine
6. The Old Schoolhouse Magazine
7. Educating the WholeHearted Child - Clay and Sally Clarkson
8. Hello, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's Farm - Betty MacDonald
We are rediscovering the library around here. Weekly trips are in order and we check out about 12 things at a time. Very nice to get some free variety to the children's books in the house and sample authors without having to actually spend money. If they are good - well, I'm always game for buying things to add to our bookshelves.
What are you reading? Any favorites right now?

Oh the song of the mom. I miss reading so much! Sure I read but it just isn't the same. It is much harder to lose myself in a book. I miss the falling to sleep a book and waking up at 4:AM and reading some more! The books sure do change - mostly good changes but I do miss the good old murder mystery. Have a great day!
Love,
Micki
Library! -- I love the library for the boys. D is just old enough to be happy to select a few books to take home. P still removes handfuls of books onto the floor. I just started taking them to story hour. Fun! One series my kids love now is by Tony Mitton: Terrific Trains, Cool Cars, Busy Boats, Amazing Airplanes are some of the titles. Very readable and fun poetry.
