Was just speaking to my partner the other week about how wonderful their story is....thanks for the recommendation - and the breastfeeding book is great - picked it up in London last break!

Is that really necessary? Ugg, why do people think cursing makes them look good, when it just makes them look trashy? I really hope there's not too much more!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286418014358269661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-85557892390701987092009-05-22T11:02:55.193-04:002009-05-22T11:02:55.193-04:00I love that you're reading Musicophilia.

I remember having a conversation with a SIL in which she asked me in wonder how I managed to read so much (this was when I only had 2 kids). I couldn't imagine life WITHOUT reading. Now I can see where she was coming from. I have to really work at it to find time to read, but am starting to squeeze it back into my day. There's just no substitute for a good book, and it sounds like you've recommended some good ones.Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16703334707738126703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-82320900885195608082009-05-20T13:48:07.695-04:002009-05-20T13:48:07.695-04:00I remember just having my little nursling . . . y'...I remember just having my little nursling . . . y'know, before he could move by himself.<br /><br />We sure did get a lot of entertainment in.

Dio does have fussy moments, but it's not all of the time, so when Zari is occupied or sleeping, I can read with him on my chest.Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-36215260866377230782009-05-20T12:36:18.176-04:002009-05-20T12:36:18.176-04:00I am wondering too...how in the world do you have ...I am wondering too...how in the world do you have the time and energy to read right now?

Jessica Mitford's "The American Way of Birth" and "The American Way of Death" are both eye-opening.
