Shhhh, Amma is trying to read!

After naps and lunch, the kids are usually happy to play together outside on a sunny day or inside on a rainy one. I always have a book to dive into at just such times. The only problem is, that as soon as I pick up a book, there they are, right at my feet. I call it Book-dar!

Let's sing a song Amma.

Put your book away now Amma!
Funny Amma, thinks she can read when we have songs to sing!
I end up reading the same paragraph over and over again because my train of thought is broken again and again. So, I give up and we sing a song or play a game. I'll read my book when I get home.

I remember trying to read a Ken Follett book when Em was small---futile.

Lorna and Sare - I have almost given up trying to read. It just doesn't work!
