A book I recently ordered came today! I just love, love, love books! No wonder we just bought another bookshelf. That's for Accalia's and Cole's books, though. Anyway, the book I received today is Romancing The Ordinary: A Year of Simple Splendor by Sarah Ban Breathnach. I've never read any of her other books such as "Simple Abundance", but her latest appealed to be for some particular reason at that particular time. Perhaps it's because I'm surrounded by children all day, and of course children are the ultimate at showing us how to love and appreciate the simple things around us. So maybe it's just something I'm more aware of at this point.

We went to the library this morning and picked up a big bag of books for Accalia once again. Accalia has rediscovered the Max and Ruby books by Rosemary Wells. So, along with reading most of the library's supply of that series, along with occasionally being up at 8 a.m. to catch the new series on Nick and having the companion computer games on Nick Jr., we have bunnies on the brain.

Cole, meanwhile, is ecstatic to see any book that has faces or people or any resemblance of either of those. Last night he was just enthralled and all drooly over "Wow! Babies!" by Penny Gentieu.
