Read It

Hello friends! We have just spent exactly 30 minutes in the Barnes and Nobles children's section and have LOVED every minute of it! We read so many great children books. When it was time to leave, I "tried" to load Anderson back into his stroller, but he held on (tight) to the nearest pole and screamed "boooookkkkk". I swear the people in there thought I was abusing him. We managed to get all the way to the front of the store, and we saw a cat book on sale. So, we have our 150th book now:) Yikes...Now, the cat book is his newest obsession. He even insisted on sleeping with it. And how do you say no to something that brings him so much joy. I mean, it's a book, it will make him smarter;) In fact, as he was going to sleep, he said "I love you, read it?" Ha, this kid knows how to get me to cooperate!!

All of this book talk, has really got me thinking that if I had a million dollars(like if we won the lottery or something) that I would seriously want to open a children's book store.Like a really, really quaint one. One that had so much whimsy and felt magical every time you brought your children. I would definitely love to own a book store like that.

I kind of have it pictured in my mind. Remember this movie "You've got Mail"? Meg Ryan had the BEST children's book store EVER...remember it? Shop Around the Corner.That store makes me really happy. I hate when in the movie,she has to close her shop cause the big corporate giant Fox Books moves into the neighborhood. The only thing that makes it better is when she and Tom Hanks get together at the end of the movie.

Ohh.....(sigh) I really LOVE that movie. I think I'm gonna try and find it tonight.

Hope you have a great weekend!
