One of my most favorite things I did with my kids when they were younger was reading to them. I absolutely loved some of the children's stories and I loved the way they often snuggled with me when reading...even all three of them. For the last several years we've been reading the Little House on the Prairie series and I've enjoyed that as well. But to be honest, we've totally slacked off for the last six months and pretty much hadn't done anything in that regard.
Some of my favorite children's books are a few that were given to us about six years ago by a very dear friend. Because of the time of year, many of the books were Halloween books. Even though I can't stand the holiday itself, these books have such great memories for me. I was feeling a little sad that not once had we been able to read these books this year. I decided though, that four days too late was better than not at all. We all sat huddled together in the living room, and even better than me reading to them was everyone taking a turn. Even my husband joined in! I sat there and cherished the moment, and knew that it was a memory I'll always have with me!
