The reading sisters

Posted on October 5, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

On a  daily basis, T2 will ask to be read to. The Hubs reads to her a few times a day, sometimes the same book over and over, because she refuses to change books. She has her favourites, for sure. And she is learning..... The other day, we.......click to learn what next.
