Mostly True Memoirs
Now We’re All Avid Readers
I’ve always been an avid reader.
There are usually three or four books going at the same time.
I used to be the only person in my family using the online library system.
That changed during the quarantine.
The whole family started using my account.
Today, three years later, they’re still using my account.
I couldn’t be happier.
My guys are reading books!
Today there was an argument.
Someone messed up someone else’s bookmark and lost their place.
Oh, my heart!
They’re arguing.
About books.
I have lived my entire life for this moment.
When my boys were little, I read to them religiously.
I thought that reading to your kids would make them avid readers.
It did not.
Until it finally did.
My next goal is to get them to discuss the books with me.
I know, I know, I shouldn’t get too greedy, but I can still hope, can’t I?
Covid was good for something – my guys turned into avid readers.
