I know!? I know!

We are all busy.? Crazy busy!? I read the blogs.? I read the online forum entries.? I know that each of us is multi-tasking like there’s no tomorrow………..

But, when was the last time you scooped your child up onto your lap (or cuddled next to him or her if they are past the ’scooping-up’ stage!!!) and read a book with your child with not one interruption?

Believe me, I am no Poster Child for this daily event!? Once?I get past sunset on the lake, dinner with the family?followed by clean up and showers I am ready to call it a day (and I mean a D-A-Y)!

But, after reading my own abstract for an upcoming training with Head Start staff, I felt compelled to make the cry-out and the kick-in-the-pants to not only my fellow Moms who are busy running their homes as well as their businesses but to myself.

Let’s make a pact here – a friendly agreement – to read to our young children and instill in them the love of reading.? It’s crucial to their success, our nation’s success and the future of this United States of America!

Happy Educating!? ?Sea feliz educando!
