Yesterday I promised I would tell the story behind this picture. This is our coat closet. When it was christmas time I put our magazine basket in there. I have never taken it out. I haven’t seen the need to. In the picture you see my 8 year old son. He is one that will disappear for and hour or two upstairs and I will find him reading by our bookshelf. He loves books! One day last week I believe I asked him to get something or put something away in the closet. After a while of me doing other things. I looked over and I could just see what you are seeing. He got out a children’s church magazine call the Friend and was reading it! I love this picture because as a mother I feel if I can teach my kids to love books they will succeed in anything they do! It is kind of funny, he never knew I took it until I showed him the picture today on the internet.
If you have a wordless Wednesday picture share the story with us on Tell Me Thursday!

Aww what a great story behind the picture. That’s awesome that he is such an avid reader, some kids (like my son) don’t enjoy reading so much!

What a great story. My own 8 year old is finally showing a real interest in reading this year and I couldn’t be more thrilled.

That’s so great! Thanks for reminding me about it – I did want to hear the story. I was an avid reader at his age myself and can’t imagine not having something available to read at any given time.
