Books for Children

Well The last blog was finding resources on how to adopt and some the physical and emotional problems that may come with your child. Sorry about the typo MS Word had no problem with the title of the last book How To get Your Kid To east… It should have been Eat. In case you couldn't tell I suck at this blog stuff. I am trying to get it to use a particular font – sometimes it works lately it doesn't. One particular irk is the fact that I use 2 spaces between sentences – It seems as though that is no longer the norm. Then lists are a total baffle. Let alone getting things into bold underline and what have you. Someone said remember when we used 5 ¼ floppies and WordStar fit on one disk and there was room for a few letters too. Well this is somewhat similar to that. Great I thought we have gotten past 1985 writing where part of the writing was coding.

So much for that tangent. Here are a few books that our daughter has been reading. By the way as soon as we knew we were adopting we let her know that she was getting a sister from India and giving her a name. For privacy reasons I have purposely not used any names so I make up another one here… In early December our daughter said "Susan is coming soon". She really is ready for her sister.
