Ellie is not a very calm child. She is smart, she is busy, and she knows what she wants. Rarely does she snuggle you or hug you, but if you have a book, she is a different girl.
Funny thing about books and all their abilities. It's the same situation in nursery at church. The kids will cry and cry for their parents, but when someone pulls out the books and satrts to read, by the end of the book there are a bunch of happy children ready to play.
I love that you have instilled a love of books in Eve at such a young age! She will be so grateful to you. What a darling photo of you with your little girlies!!
There are some kids in nursery like that. If they are sad or crying, I try to pick a book that they might like, and they will sit and snuggle in my lap while I read the book.
love this jen!!
ReplyDeletehave a happy day

ReplyDeleteThat is a sweet picture. I refuse to believe that you are her grandmother--not possible.
ReplyDeleteNow for the important question:
What book is it?
Beautiful moment!
