Bunny My honey

We just found my favorite Easter book at Walmart. I read this book over and over to Cam when she was little. We have lost or worn out many copies of this book through out the last 14 years. I was so happy to pick up a new copy last night. I look every Easter for a new one. I couldn't wait to give it to her so when everyone else had gone to bed I gave it to her. She smiled as she read it. After she had went downstairs I looked for the book to put it away but she had taken it with her to bed. I guess you are never too old for your favorite bedtime story.

Great Place to find books

I just joined the paperback book swap. I got two free swaps for posting 10 unwanted books--duplicates and old babysitter's club books nobody will read. On the way is a book I need for my FIAR lessons. Not a bad trade. If you sign up give them my info as a referal and I will earn more books please. My nickname is mittenmom.
