Goodnight Moon

I have been reading the same book each night for the past couple of months to Grace. Many of you out there have likely heard of it, the book is titled Goodnight Moon.

Tonight as I read this book again to Grace I can't help but hope she will remember this book when she grows up. In the book: I always think it is funny that there is a picture of cow jumping over the moon and this old lady whispering "HUSH", however the rhyming is great and the colors are wonderful for such little ones like Grace. Well.. I also can't help but now love this book as I have read it so many times. Will can stick to reading her a poem and maybe one of these days I'll change books but for now this one is pretty special to share with my dear Grace. I wonder what other books I should start to read to her. If anyone has any recommendations let me know.

With so many stories and so many things to explore out there I am reminded of how much I have to still discover myself. Life is full of so much that we all need to do our best to enjoy what matters most to us by never missing the chance to participate in it all. Moments with Grace each day remind me of this.

Bumbo Face!

This is my new favorite photo of Grace. The Bumbo is one of her favorite spots.

My Little Music Maker!

Grace has started to go to a music class at our church on Monday called music makers. Young infants and toddlers all get together and someone leads various songs and activities and all the kids end up being able to get the wiggles out. And let me tell you that oh boy does she enjoy watching the other children. My little one is quite observant. Grace will arch her back if you don't have her in the right position to see things but with so many kids running around she is so entertained and hardly moves the entire time except for the " I am tired or hungry" stuff. I have to admit that I am also entertained by the kids. I will have to take some photos of this maybe for next weeks post.

It is quite fun to see how much Grace loves to hear music and to be sung to. I pulled out an old children song book and attempted to sing songs. Mind you, I would likely get a good laugh if I was to audition for American Idol, but as long as Grace likes my singing that is all the matters to me.
