Sabotage and Sneeches

My three-year-old HID my library book. If I had it, I would now be reading it; but no, the little weasel put it in a very mysterious place. When I asked her what she did with it, she gave me a little smirk and said, "Nothing!" But when I find it, I'll share my review. It's Rules of Attraction, the next in the Perfect Chemistry series. Where could it be????

But my six-year-old has been the golden child as of late. I told him how I used to tell The Star-bellied Sneeches in contests for speech class. He eagerly waited for me to check out the book, and when I read it to him with all my well-practiced voices he smiled and smiled. And smiled. And smiled. Boy, I love that kid.

  1. Oh, that little Aidan! I can see her sweet (impy?) little adorable/beautiful face. And Brian. What a sweetheart. Six year old boys ARE golden, I discovered with own son--after they pass the 3 and 4 year old stage!!

    It will be interesting to find out where that book is!!!

  4. If she has a play kitchen, check in the oven. I always found lots of things in the oven. :)

  6. I love the sneeches. Ah the memories.

    My kids have hidden my books before. Try looking in the laundry. Or maybe that's just at my house. My kids know I hate dirty clothes so why would I ever look there? Little imps. :)
