Books for the Bookworms...

Just when my resolve was getting thin in my determination to finish out the homeschool year, the new Sonlight catalog came! Sonlight is the curriculum I use with the kids. I really like it, mostly, and have learned to modify or just leave out the things I don't care for. When the catalog comes, it's like having a bookstore come to my house. I usually do a quick once over when I first get the catalog. Then, when the kids go to bed, I indulge in some "window shopping". Then, over the next few weeks, I start making the lists of (1)books I need...(2)books I'd like to have...(3)books that are on the "completely extra and only if I haven't already broke the budget would I even consider buying" list... I'm a junkie, I know. I have boxes full of books that I can reuse from Andrew's younger years, and I still manage to make lists of books that fit each category. I love to read. I love to read books. And I want my kids to love it, too. Andrew is a bookworm, and now Jon is catching on to the joy of reading. He finished a book the other day, and was sad it was over. Now that's the sign of a good book. Perhaps a new bookworm has been born...
