It all started last weekend when the boy was sick with a fever and we were trapped indoors for 4 full days! As you can imagine the 3 of us eventually started getting on one anothers nerves...
So I decided that each afternoon we'd all go our seperate ways and keep ourselves entertained ALONE (and hopefully quiet time) for 45 minutes to an hour...since I've been really wanting to get back into reading that's what I'd do with my time. The boy usually wanted to hang on the computer while the boyfriend played the Playstation.
But last Monday...when I was home from work with the boy and the boyfriend was at work...the boy came in and snuggled up to me...and we read...him with his "Captain Underpants" book and me with my current read "Good in Bed" by Jennifer Wiener (great book...not at all as the title suggests lol...I'm actually re-reading because I loved it so much the first time...many years ago...)...and we read for close to 2 hours!!!
Today we had a relaxing day at home (yesterday was very busy with the parade taking up most of the day...we went extra early to get good parking)...I decided to read a bit this afternoon and again the boy came to snuggle and read his book.
I love that he loves to read as much as I do!

Sounds like a perfect way to spend the afternoon!
I heart reading! Jenniefer Weiner is AWESOME! Love her books! Goodnight Nobody was good too! Glad you both are enjoying reading!
we started that last year and I love it too! I was trying to find a way to get Mad to read more....what better way than to set an example.
I love reading too! Unfortunately I make so little time to do it anymore :( But look out, 'cuz once I pick up a book, I won't put it down till it's finished! :)
Sounds like a great afternoon! I only have one that like to read as much as I do.
