My favortite storybook!

Goodnight Moon is my all time favorite children's book.  I hold this book near and dear to my heart.  15 years ago I began reading this book to my daughter as part of her night time routine.  Today, I read this book to my two year old son as part of his bedtime routine.  When he unexpectedly came in to our lives my daughter wanted to give him her copy. I was so touched that she was willing to part with it. However, I let her keep it for her children someday, and she bought him his own copy when he was born.

I love the details in this story and how predictable it is.  This story is gentle and calming and what a better way to end the day with a relaxing poetic story.

    What a sweet way to display her love for her brother!! Occasionally my sister teases me about how she always received hand-me-downs but I feel and I know she knows that it comes loaded with love!!
