Story Books

story books

I feel very blessed that my little girl loves to hear stories, but we have to do something about her story books. I dont know how she does it, but each and every day she finds a way to knock them all over the place.

I am trying to teach her to keep some of her room picked up on her own, and the books are one thing that I know she can handle. Knowing and doing are two different things apparently, because each day I go in and they are all over the floor and I have to stop myself from picking up her mess.

I gave her a book case for all of her story books. I should mention that she has at least fifty or more books. She got some of these as gifts, but my mom went a little nuts and signed her up for three different book clubs. That is a lot of books. Though we have read most of them, we simply cant get to nearly all of them. I gave her the bookcase so that she could better see her story books and we could find the ones that we had not read in a while.

Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results

That lasted for about a day.

Instead of standing the books on end like most do on a book case, my daughter has stacked them flat on top of each other. Not only that, the pile of story books is way to high. She took out one of the shelves. Since I try to let her do things her own way, I let this go. However, the story books get too top heavy and they fall over. It has happened every single time. I help her pick them up sometimes, but she likes to do it on her own most of the time. I guess she will learn eventually.

In the mean time, I am always looking for new story books for her. Though she has many of them, some of them have to go as they are too young for her. She is ready for more complex stories, and I hope that this will show her how great reading can be. I have been looking around online for some great places to find story books just for my daughter. There are some out there that have book recommendations for age groups, so if you are looking for them like I am, this might be the way to go.

For beautiful eyes,look for the good in others-for beautiful lips,speak only words of kindness-and for poise,walk with the knowledge thatyou are never alone.
