A few weeks back I was over at my parents house helping my dad with something in the garage. We came across a box full of stuff that I hoped existed but hadn't seen in years and just wasn't sure.
Lost treasure, if you will.
This box contained many of my favorite books that I used to read and re-read as a kid and I wanted so badly to have them for Chloe once she became old enough to appreciate them. Wonderful and complex novels you may ask? Nope. Comics. Go figure my favorite books were basically comics. I mean, not your typical like Batman or Spiderman comics, but my two favorites were "Garfield" and "Calvin & Hobbes".
Now, I know for sure I was older than 6 years old when I was most interested in these books(partially because I think a lot of the humor is well above the head of a 6 year old)but I decided to show them to Chloe and see what happened. Now, when I tell you she has been GLUED to these books, I mean it. She has a spot on the couch that she sits and just pours over the pages. She has spent literally hours reading the books cover to cover.
It's a start!
Have a great weekend, folks~
