Gentle Giant

I worked practically all weekend, so, as planned, I didn't even open Then We Came to the End. Nicky and I read plenty, though. He read this on the way to school this morning. It's an old favorite. While driving, I asked him what sounds the various animals make. What does the cow say? "Mooooo." What does the horsey say? "Hehehe." (He makes the cutest horse sound.) What does the bear say? "Nigh-night." Nearly all our nighttime books have bears that fall asleep ... what a cutie.

Perhaps the worst thing about working all weekend is getting up and going right back to work on Monday morning. Luckily, it doesn't happen that often. And I really do love my job. I'm just going to keep repeating that to myself.
