my nightstand is freaking out. fresh books to hold for me as i delve into a summertime hobby. yes, that's right...summertime only (well, during winter break too). since i teach reading to 3rd graders from august to may, reading during my spare time is the LAST thing i feel like doing during the school year. already read a few from this stack...workin' on "heiress for hire". so far i cracked up on the very first page. good sign.
taylor was so cute this morning. as i was finishing up "the wife of reilly", she went to collect 3-4 of her books and brought them to the living room. she proudly proclaimed that she too, had books. so endearing when she wants to be just like mama or daddy. =)
hope everyone's 4th of july was festive. we went to uncle steve's house for a cookout. *finally* rained so we didn't get to swim in his pool like taylor hoped. but, we watched the soccer semi-finals (italy vs. germany) and taylor had naomi put make-up on her. wow. she lit up like i have never seen her light up before. eye shadow, blush and lipstick...tay was in to it all!!! after uncle's, i got to watch neighboring cities' fireworks from my bedroom window as i caught up with my "just graduated from college" brother on the phone. all's well in vegas...glad to hear. he was very ecstatic that he was getting his holiday pay, i'll tell you that! =) leave it to my brother to just crack me up...love that about him.
anyway, i hear tay starting to stir from her nap...mommy-time is all done.
*currently rockin' out to: i won't be left-tegan and sara (good ol' grey's anatomy music!!!)
