About books

April 09

**I like books. I like books about knitting. I like books about sewing. Oddly enough, I am not really a good knitter or sewer. But I have been enjoying reading about it and pretending I might someday be.

My mom asks, “How many knitting books do you own?”
Me, “Uh, like 3 or 4”
Her, “How many knitting projects have you done?”
Me, “Started, or finished?”
Her, “Finished.”
Me, “weeeeellllll, none.”

**I am learning a lot more about the Bible than I knew before. We read The Egermeier’s Bible Story Book which came with our Sonlight kindergarten. I realize that it isn’t the Bible, but it makes some concepts, parts of the stories I had perhaps glossed over, clearer for me than I ever realized they could be. Pretty cool to be learning along with my child!

And even better, Aviana loves this book and asks for the Bible every day.

**I started reading a book with a glorious title: Confessions of a Counterfeit Farm Girl~ it even has shoes on the cover; what’s not to love? Um, the book. IT SUCKS. It’s about a woman who is selfish and generally rude, thinks way too highly of herself, and moves to the wilds of Virginia from New York City. It’s ridiculous. I don’t know who thinks this book is funny or worth finishing, but it certainly isn’t this chick, who never thought she’d be a genuine farm girl. (Well, on my good days. Kind of.)
