My daughter loves to read books. At night, she gets to pick two to read before bed time - one can be a picture book that we made her, featuring all of her family and friends from special events, and the other can to be a story book. Then we snuggle up together on her bed and she picks which Daddy reads to her and which Mommy reads to her.
Just as an aside, for anyone raising kids away from their extended families, the picture books are an excellent way to make sure your child continues to feel close to everyone important in her life.
Anyway, I thought this special time of day was the perfect opportunity to show togetherness.
Next, please hop over to Michele's blog and check out her "togetherness" image.
So very sweet! I love a good bedtime routine, and she will cherish these times forever!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a fun idea! We don't have any family near us, so this would be perfect.

ReplyDeleteThese are so sweet and what special memories they are! Love them :)
ReplyDeleteIt is perfect....love to read with them
ReplyDeleteSo perfect! I made a little picture book for my son a while back that we fill with all the pictures we get in the mail throughout the year (mainly Christmas cards and school pics of cousins), he loves it!! It is probably a good idea to make a little book on shutterfly though... why not, huh?! Wow... lots of rambling!! Love these pics!!
