A few nights ago I was not feeling well. Nothing major, but enough that I was gonna pass on our bedtime read for the night. My son was disappointed, but after a few minutes said, “Can I read to you instead?” I’ll be honest, I said no a couple of times at first. But he kept insisting that it was my turn to be read to, and he told me I could even choose the book–how could I turn that down?
So, out of my three choices, I picked The Mitten by Jan Brett, and below is a picture I snuck while I was getting my bedtime book.

So I’ve discovered a new occasional perk of #RaisingReaders….a break. 🙂
