When my little one was that age, he LOVED to pull ALL of his books off the shelf. A few months ago he asked if he could have the bookshelf back in his room (several years ago we took it out of his room because of the daily mess). I'm happy to report that although we are still reading together, there is less book mess. He is happily past the book pulling off stage :)<BR/><BR/>Take care and have a nice day Barbara!Susan Skitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871921369901815459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-46422783736750411422008-06-09T09:20:00.000+01:002008-06-09T09:20:00.000+01:00“I may even sit under the tree and read later.

I try to plan some down time in the garden, but it never fails, I get up and wander around always up to some little task or so…even if it is just trimming off a few old blossoms. I find it just plain hard to sit out there. <BR/>Read a book in the garden, I don't think I have ever been able to do much of that...yet isn't that part of why we labor so hard is to sit back and smell the roses? Something I must think more about :0)<BR/><BR/>Barbara thanks so very much for honoring me with this blog award. It really does bless me!<BR/><BR/>Oliver looks like he really is enjoying his library!
