You're hurting my ears!

Tonight on the way home, we listened to our jelly bean sing "Ring-around-the rosey," and it went something like this, ring-a-oun da rosey pocka full horsey ashes ashes we all all don! When we joined in with her singing...she stopped and yelled, "Stop, you're hurting my ears!" Before she turned 2 she loved my singing...oh well.

One thing I know doesn't hurt her ears is this fun pop-up book called My Yummy Treats, by Sue Whiting and Stuart Martin. It is a cute story about a butterfly who doesn't want to share, but realizes that sharing with her friends is more fun. My Aunt bought this book for her, I am not sure where but I did find it at Insect Lore for $12.99. I highly recommend it!

I knew you could...

I knew you could...By Craig Dorfman, and illustrated by Christina Ong. We received this book from one of jelly bean's day care teachers and it is a great book! Both my daughter and I enjoy reading it.

The story is an inspirational story that not only children can learn from, but adults too. The train takes different tracks in life some good, some not so good. Sometimes the train wishes he could be someone else, but that someone else wishes he could be the train. In essence, the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

My daughter has picked this book out for a couple of weeks...she loves the train but also the illustrated pages. I highly recommend this book to, well, everyone.

Happy reading!
