This year really came through reading-wise. Initially, I didn't know what to expect. And I think I was a little surprised to find myself feeling a strong pull right from the beginning of the year to published books. I tried quite a few new-to-me authors with more abandon than I have in recent years—something I'm proud of and hope to continue. Not all of them worked in just an Angie-like way, but regret never entered the room. I passed them on. To the Little Free Libraries in my neighborhood, to the used bookstore down the street that I love, to my own public library in donations. Someone will love them. It didn't have to be me. And I loved giving them that little push along their way to the homes of the people who would soak up their words and hold them tight. What a gift books are. How much I need them and how grateful I am at the end of this year for the ones that came and continued on their way—but most especially for the ones that came to stay. And so, as has long bee...
Oh my goodness, FINN! I can't even, everyone is so adorable :)
ReplyDeleteLol. He was very pleased to be Phineas.
DeleteRose and the Doctor! That is super cool. Did anyone know who they were?
ReplyDeletePlenty of people in Will's class did. There was actually another Dr. Who in his class. No one in Piper's. Not many kindergartners watching it, I don't think. ;)

ReplyDeleteLol. I finished doing his hair and he gazed solemnly in the mirror and said, "Mom. I look *exactly* like David Tennant." Success!!

ReplyDeleteIs it very cold during Halloween? You're kids don't look like they're freezing. It's always COLD over here.
I know, right?! I can't believe it looking at them.
DeleteIt was chilly that night but not so bad when we took pictures. Finn definitely wore a hoodie when we were out trick-or-treating.
