Just one more...

that's Ellen's mantra at the moment.
She's always enjoyed reading, and has gone ahead in leaps and bounds
over the past few months in particular - so any person willing to be an
audience will do as she works her way through our extensive library of
books, as well as those from our public library. Sometimes Mummy and
Daddy just don't have the time to sit and listen, so on Papa's birthday
with a number of Great Aunts and cousins available, she was in her
element! Papa's cousin's wife was one of the willing
participants...thanks Leonie!
I've always loved reading (rather the opposite of Greg), and am so glad
that our older girls are both very keen to read as well. When they're
not reading their own books, we're working our way through numerous
volumes from Enid Blyton - one of my favourite childhood authors (and
interestingly, Greg is as keen to hear the stories read as the girls are).
There's something special about sharing a good book isn't there?
