Hadias,
Thanks. I always like it when we find good books.

Mandi,
That would be hard. Can you put the books on the roof? :D

We enjoyed Five Little Peppers, too. I think there is a second one, but I haven’t read it yet.

Isn’t it great we can discover all these wonderful authors with our kids?

So cute! ( : Beautiful big eyes for certain! And I would love to hear her ‘big mouth’ telling all that she has to tell! Precious!
I love shopping for used books! Our local library has an ongoing book sale year round with 10 and 50 cent books. This is so dangerous for me right now with my very limited space and the fact that the books the library seems to be discarding are most often the classics. How can I not buy such titles as Eight Cousins by Louisa May Alcott? If this keeps up though I may be sleeping outside under the trailer for lack of space! ( :
We are currently enjoying Five Little Peppers and How They Grew – how did I grow up not knowing this little gem?

Susan,
Oh, yes, she really is sweet. She just LOVES to talk.

A while back we read a story about each individual’s purpose. When I asked Sunshine what she thought her purpose was, she smiled, “Talking.” I laughed, “You may be onto something.”

Melissa,
Yes, treasures are super and finding cheap, great literature is even better. :)

Emily,
I was thinking I should have added the fact that she got her big mouth from her mother. I’m quiet in a crowd, but if I know you I never shut up. ;)
