I love the fact that...I would have loved your mom! I love the fact that she wanted to read every fiction book in the library and it makes me wonder how close she go to meeting that goal.<br /><br />My mom wasn't/isn't much of reader...but she did start me on my life-long love affair with books. When I was in second grade she gave me her five book set of Nancy Drew books that she'd gotten for Christmas one year when she was in grade school. My favorite gift of all time from her (and she's given me some pretty spiffy stuff)! <br /><br />I would love to pass my passion for books on to my son...but, although he does read more than my husband, I don't think it will ever be a real love for him Video games and computers hold that place in his heart.Bev Hankinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127476456755776574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586221389294674361.post-45519455472570990122010-10-29T12:58:32.034-04:002010-10-29T12:58:32.034-04:00My mom was an avid reader as well.

I've already passed on my love of reading and books to my children, which is why their are more books than anything else in this house. I probably could open a library. :-) Have a great weekend.Petulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11246335892746223347noreply@blogger.com
