This is a normal scene at my house during the day. My kids love books. I mean love. We have a lot of books and I wish we had more. Steve thinks I'm crazy as we don't have room for the books, but can you ever have enough books? Especially children's books? I really don't think so.
After a morning of running, playing, imagining and trouble making, we settle down for quiet time. At this point I'm usually very ready for nap time but the clock tells me to hold off just a little bit. So we pull out the books and have ourselves some quiet time. I love this time of day. My kids pour through the books, they show each other the ones they love the most and Reagan will tell stories to Cache. It is so fun to watch. For some reason we don't have fights during quiet time. Some days I let them stay up way too long because they are being so good and I love watching them. So here is my picture for the week. An every day occurance that I treasure.

quiet time before nap time.... brilliant.
I love quiet time. When my kids were younger we did that more during the summer. It was a time for all the neighbors to go home and we could read, nap or watch a movie together.
I also feel that you can't have too many books!! I love childrens books too!! We have a ton. Some day (when we have the money) I want a room of bookshelves all filled up!!
