This morning, after a really rocky start because I'm evil in the mornings, I started telling Jake a "choose your own adventure" type story on the way to school. It involved his favorite things: him as a knight, dragons, goblins, and his best friend from class. :)
He has no idea how he made my day when he said, "Mommy, you're a good storyteller."
It's the biggest compliment he could have given me. (Okay, I also wouldn't mind, "Mommy, you've lost so much weight!")
Speaking of good storytelling, I don't normally "review" books here, but I will recommend the one I just finished. It's Digging To America by Anne Tyler. If you've never read Anne Tyler, and especially if you're a woman who has never read Anne Tyler, you need to go do that right now. She's written 17 novels, so you'll find something you like. Mom, thanks for loaning me the book, I'll get it back to you next time I see you.
Now I'm going to go dig through the books we're selling at Ed McCay's to make sure I didn't put any Anne Tyler books in those stacks...
