Old Yeller...

One thing I love about my mom visiting, is that she still reads to my boys. They both love being read to and her reading from her own personal copy of Old Yeller, was pretty special! I hope they always have memories of the stories she read!

The older the boys get, the more I realize, that many times the most valuable thing you can gift a child, is simply your time!







This little guy gets so very lost in stories... often when I am reading to him, I will steal a little peek at his face, and his eyes are millions miles away- running from volcanos, swimming from sharks, running right beside Arliss and Old Yeller... decades in the past, sometimes in another world all together. Reading to him is truly a treat!

You hit the nail on the head...time is the best gift you can give to a child. Anne loves to read, so this is a match made in heaven ❤️ The pictures speak a thousand words. Happy times during this shelter in place.
Love and hugs to y’all!
