A Reader After All


I’ve been trying to get Jackson to sit and read with me for months.  Then this morning I decided to read The Help while he played with his toys.  After playing with all the toys that I had set out, he started pulling his children’s books off the self.  This time he wasn’t just pulling them and making a mess of thing but actually ‘reading’ the books. 
One by one he began to bring them over to me.  I asked him if he wanted to read them.  I, of course, expected to read 1 to 2 pages and then have him move on to something different but he didn’t.  He placed himself in my lap and remained there not only through one book but 3!  Maybe I’ll have a reader after all.
