this little corner

In this simple little corner of our dining room sits a chair, side table, and season book basket. In the basket are a good bit of our autumn books along with the books the children have been creating.

They each love to sit and read over their books aloud to me, or quietly to themselves.

As this is our third new reader in the house, it's been quite an exciting last few months as she familiarizes herself with new words. I still do most of the reading with her in the larger picture books, but I know it won't be long before she will be called on to read to her little sister.

{Speaking of her little sister Rosemary, she is recovering well. This has been her most painful surgery yet, as her incision is in the back of her neck, and her bones and muscles are healing from being cut through. Saying all that, she is slowing getting around by crawling and makes more progress each day.}
