I finally got a bookcase for James's books. $10 on Craigslist! The basket and bin in the corner just weren't working anymore for the number of bargain books I keep buying.
These are books given to James by his Grammaw and Grampuh Shepard (Bebe and Cece), Aunt Emily W., Uncle Jacob, little friend Brooklyn, and Mommy and Daddy. These were all gifts of love to one of the sweetest boys who ever lived.
It is so fulfilling for me to share my love of reading with James. We read every day before naps and bedtime. He really likes learning his letters right now and can identify maybe eight of them when he sees them. I didn't know that kids this age could do that.
Also a great place for his soft animals.
Just wanted to get a pic of my organization before James takes over. He was trying to grab the camera from me during this photo.
I told him to stand by his books and he started clapping. "Yay, books! Hooray!"
A room without books is like a body without a soul.

Love this:) Is the dresser on the left the one we sold you? If it is, I love that you still have it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! That is definitely the dresser you sold us. Someday I'm going to change those handles, but otherwise we love it. :)
