Like most families we read books every night before bed. I have a few books that I love and thought I would blog about a few of them. Plus my computer is freaking out (screen is green), so I haven't been able to edit any photos. I thought at least taking photos might help me from losing my mind!
This book, Someday by Alison McGee has been one of my favorites since Presley was just an itty bitty baby. I remember walking into the book store and seeing this book on display. I picked it up and a few pages later I was crying (I do that a lot now). Since then I have bought the book for several of my girlfriends who have baby girls.
This book is from a Mom to her daughter about all the things she'll do. About her growing from being her baby to being her daughter and one becoming a mother herself. And someday, "your hair will glow silver in the sun. And when that day comes Love you will remember me"... I don't know why I'm so attached to this book. Hmm, I think it's because I want her to have all the life experiences it talks about. And it reminds me that someday, my little Bug will have a life all her own...
The illustrations are lovely too. Since having Presley my drawing skills have been put to the test. This books illustrations have helped me grasp the concept that pictures are just lines, simple lines. With that being said, my lines don't look like these!..
So you'll see our little guy Lenny in the photos. I was setting up the book and he jumped up on the ottoman and posed. He's such a big part of our life now I guess it is a good idea to start photographing him...
