First, you're waxing poetic about how you can share your love of books with this genius child and then the nitty gritty of a baby learning by doing the same thing over and over and over and over interrupts the motherly dreaming! How often the day-to-day changes the dynamics of our fantasies. But sometimes the day-to-day culminates in even better dreams -- like watching your own child teach her child to love reading! Keep at it, he'll eventually get the idea that there's more to books than page turning!Omanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4861357155447040283.post-38203646192079739942009-05-01T19:05:00.000-05:002009-05-01T19:05:00.000-05:00I find it rather funny as I reflect back to Heath'...I find it rather funny as I reflect back to Heath's book days. All I remember is the repetition of the same book--The Fox and Hound- Todd was a fox. He lived on a farm. The Widow Tweed took care of him. Or the nursery rhythm:<br />One misty, moisty morning,<br />When cloudy was the weather.<br />I chanced to meet an old man,<br />Dressed all in leather.<br />He began to compliment, <br />And I began to grin.<br />How do you do,<br />And how do you do,<br />And how do you do again.<br /><br />The fun is just beginning.<br />Love,<br />GrandmaGrandmanoreply@blogger.com
