Tornado warnings...

So, being stuck in a plane for far too long due to tornadoes has its perks... I had a lot of down time to read! I LOVE Little Women! It's taking me much much too long to get through it on account of new job, kids, cleaning etc etc. But I now know that however many daughters/granddaughters/neices I may have, I will give them this book for their twelfth birthday, everyone of them that hasn't passed the age, anyway. The lessons of female empowerment, living what you believe, the importance of hard work and caring for your family, of living simply and bettering yourself for a happier life instead of lusting after possessions. I love love love what this book is all about! I can't say it enough. It's definitely quickly becoming one of my favorites.

Ashamed...

Ok, so I have been reading very little lately between work and kids and home. I recommit myself to my goal, since I am only half way through book #2 out of 21 and its April. Little Women is awesome, by the way. It feels more like each chapter is a short story with a new moral, a new lesson learned. And, so far, there has not been a chapter that hasn't caused me to puddle up a little.
Alright, here I go again! I WILL do better.
