My Lil' Bookworm

I sometimes am sure Trio is going to be a big reader like me. He has always had a lot of board books around, most given to us by the cart that goes around Dell Children's with toys, books, and socks for the sick children (which is a wonderful thing let me tell you; they even have magazines for the adults to help them get through their waiting). And I don't know if it's just genetics or if he sees me reading and just picks up one of his books but lately he has just taken to browsing through his books and "talking" out loud including babbling and laughing. I think it's the cutest thing and it makes me happy because I don't think nearly enough children read nowadays.

It also makes me happy because I think this is something we will share in the later years; him being a boy he is going to have some bonding moments with his dad no matter what which means in a few years Mom will be left out in the cold on some things. But if we both like to read it is something we can share just the two of us since his dad is not a big reader. It is a great thing to have this feeling that your child is going to love reading as much as you do.

And he's also like me that he seems to like reading at his own pace. Whenver I try to read to him he always is trying to turn the pages before I am done like "Hurry up Mom!" It's so endearing and cute. Plus I can't get the picture of him sitting down when he was younger in his bumpo , reading one of his books just like a big boy. You can't get more cute than that.
