I've been reading for years even before I had my first baby. I have favorite blog posts saved because I love your approach to parenting and knew I'd want to reference your maternal wisdom one day. Thank you so much for keeping this up.

My kids and I spend lots of time in the car each day driving to and from school and we love to pass the time by listening to books on cd. I have a 7 year old, a 5 year old (she's a Sarah too!) and a 2 year old, and I want to make sure what we're listening to is appropriate for all ears, plus I like to enjoy the story too. So I'm so excited to start working our way through these lists. Sarah, I love your blog and appreciate all the thoughts and advice you've shared over the years. I've been following since my oldest was an infant and your Patrick was a toddler. I still love to browse through the archives and glean more wisdom and encouragement from you. Thanks for all the time you've put into sharing on this blog!Katie K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09627717146636809881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-79668108482754625462017-03-06T10:22:32.981-05:002017-03-06T10:22:32.981-05:00Great list!

My daughter is making her First Communion this spring and I've been looking for special books to give her as a gift. I found this one that I think you'd like as well for Janey, Patrick - kids big and little! (And how neat is Pope Francis - I love his message and how he represents our faith). This book will be a gem we'll hold onto for many years!<br />https://www.amazon.com/Dear-Pope-Francis-Answers-Children/dp/0829444335Greg and Mary Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06854838085530471451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-52689730038554526102017-03-06T06:36:22.827-05:002017-03-06T06:36:22.827-05:00Thanks for your book posts.

It does not seem like a lot, but over a period of time, I guess we do end up getting through some good chapter books. I would love to read regularly in the afternoon after school, but I find it can be hectic and hard to get everyone settled at that time. My toddler also loves a good stack or two of books! :)Jacelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396679252513469962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-25470317642651976382017-03-05T00:10:15.010-05:002017-03-05T00:10:15.010-05:00PS-Janey is home during day so I usually read a st...PS-Janey is home during day so I usually read a stack to her every day.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14912466557223829314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-76722093649879531172017-03-05T00:08:56.952-05:002017-03-05T00:08:56.952-05:00We usually read a chapter or two (or less if it...We usually read a chapter or two (or less if it's late) right before bed. We take it slow for sure-some nights are skipped if I'm too tired or there was another activity that didn't allow us time for longer bed time. Rarely I will read book after school or other time just because.

I'm finding it harder to find time to read long chapter books to my almost 9 and 6 years old. Currently, we're reading The Moffats series by Eleanor Estes. My son and daughter enjoy them, but we're making slow progress. <br />Thank you for the spring picture book recommendations. I'll try to find these at the library for my 2 year old. She loves stories!<br />Jacelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396679252513469962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-41754120644797390842017-03-04T12:44:27.363-05:002017-03-04T12:44:27.363-05:00Thanks so much!
