The joy of reading

5.27.2012

As I mentioned earlier this week, we love to read as a family.
We read together throughout the day.
And although Madeline is just sounding out CVC words, she loves to "read" right along with us.
Sometimes they got a bit distracted by birds on the feeder, band aids, 
playing knock-knock, or howling like wolves.
Still, we had a fun afternoon.














 










I guess all that reading tired Caleb out.
He wanted to put Madeline down for her nap that afternoon.
Seems somebody else needed one too.

Your pictures were done beautifully. I love how you kept one in focus and then one blurry...the angles and the way you captured the light. You did a great job! LOVE LOVE books at our house too. We read every night...so important!

Love these photos! You are so fortunate to have such a large sofa and window for Caleb and Madeline to read by. You should be so very proud of the both of them and how well they read. Fabulous job mommy!

I always love looking through your images, Eva! Love the true life that you always capture so well :-) And the love between your 2 precious kiddos is so touching, I can actually feel it in your photography! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

Your two beauties are beyond precious. I love reading and have a weakness for buying kiddie books! Love your pictures, the lighting is incredible.

Would love to know what lens you use. :)

I love that your kids love to read. That copy of Wizard of Oz reminds me of the copy we had when I was a kid.

So sweet - clearly your kiddos have an incredibly special bond and you capture that so beautifully!
Love that they both ended up napping... not much cuter than a sleeping child :)

I think that is great!! I absolutely adore seeing my kids choose to sit & read rather than play with toys. Warms my heart.
