Bekaon 13 Oct 2012 at 6:18 pm 13Hi, Nat! I’m excited that you’re hosting right now. Its about one of the only times my schedule lets me sit and read for 4 hours so you are going to be my main host! Well at least until the 15th hour or so.

Museon 13 Oct 2012 at 6:24 pm 19I ended up getting quite ill just after noon and so ended up only starting much later than expected at 5pm instead of 1pm. Got 3 hours reading until got knocked down again by it.
Heading for bed but hope to read a few hours tomorrow morning.
naton 13 Oct 2012 at 6:24 pm 20It does, doesn’t it? =D
Courtneyon 13 Oct 2012 at 6:31 pm 21I absolutely love this latest mini-challenge involving children and reading. Since my son’s birth almost four years ago I have kept an entire page on my blog dedicated to pictures of him reading throughout life. The pictures go from “in utero” to present day.
