Reading Spaces, the Sequel

Three other aunties and I are off to our Gracepoint Minneapolis church to babysit spend quality time with all the kiddos whilst their parents are at their Thanksgiving Retreat. Maybe we’ll have an official ribbon-cutting ceremony for Bibliopolis’ Minneapolis Branch! So I’ve scheduled some “aww”-inducing Reading Snapshots posts to tide you over for the weekend. I’m sure you don’t mind!

Today, we shall check in with Ezra, the builder of the…reading spaces. You thought I was going to say temple, didn’t you? I mean Ezra from Gracepoint Riverside church. Last time we saw him, he had the pillows and blankies. And the getaway car. But today he’s got a new book, and a new look.

Still using the pillows and blankets, but trying out the sitting up thing!

I wonder what kind of space he’ll create next!

Reading Snapshots: Breaking & Entering Edition

The other day, I got a text message that read: “Breaking into Bibliopolis after hours!” It was accompanied by this picture. I must say it was wise to include this picture, since it did blunt the whole “breaking into” part. Some of the Bibliopolis patrons will be aghast, “Michael has his shoes on!” but I’m sure his dad carried him onto that green chair. 🙂

At least Stephen’s reading The Jesus Storybook Bible!

Happy Monday!

Books & Babysitting: Part 3

As we learned from Ezra the other day, finding a comfortable reading space is important when trying to get into a good book. And as we’ve also seen, books make babysitting better! Here’s one of our favorite Gracepoint Berkeley triplets happily reading her book. It really is a fine line between a truck and a chair, you know? I can relate a bit with her; the car has always been one of my favorite reading spaces!

Perhaps we need hands-free driving laws for playtime!

How about you? Where do you do your best reading? What are your favorite reading spaces?
