Eleanor Reads! November Edition

Each month Eleanor and I share the chapter books we've read in that period. We've been reading chapter books since before Kindergarten and her attention span as a four year old was definitely something to brag about. Eleanor was born a reader and that makes my heart so, so happy.

I am making a couple changes because Eleanor is becoming a more independent reader at home. She has no problem plowing through books at school, but at home she prefers I read to her while she is drawing, painting, working on a science project, etc. Plus, who doesn't also love being read to at bedtime?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today, and every single day, I a thankful for my family - especially a mom and grandparents who are my everything. I am thankful that God chose me to be Eleanor's Momma, and that I get to watch this incredible little human grow into the person she is meant to be. I am thankful for good friends who love us unconditionally. I am thankful for a safe place to live, enough food and clothing, and the life that we have. I am thankful for a good school for Eleanor, for her new dance studio, and instructors who push her out of her comfort zone toward the dancer she can become if she chooses to.

May this day be a blessing to you for however you choose to spend it - alone, with friends, or with family.

Love,
Sarah

This meme is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings.

I am absolutely dying to get my copy of You'll Be the Death of Me, which will finally be in my hands on November 30th.


What book are you most looking forward to coming out next?

Happy Reading!

Well, Crap…Again

Laptop just decided to turn off while I was attempting to log in, and won’t turn back on. Awesome. Had big plans today for new reviews, but just typing this post alone on my phone is making me want to stab myself in the eye with a pen so there’s no way I would be able to type a whole review on my phone. I guess we will just have to see what happens and if I can get it fixed.
