Girls Gone Gift Shopping

I am participating in the Indigo Kids program by Mom Central Canada.  I received compensation for my participation in this campaign.  The opinions on this blog are my own. (This one’s also a giveaway!)

CONTEST CLOSED.

Colum’s class went on a field trip yesterday which meant I got to had to drop him off first thing in the morning and he would come home at the end of the school day. For this parent of a child in half-day kindergarten, this was nothing short of THE MOST WONDERFUL THING EVER. I still had a three year old and a baby to take care of, true, but now we had time to go places and do things.

Curious George Never Gets Stale

When is the last time you read Curious George? I’m talking about the original here, not any of the recent mass-produced gems “illustrated in the style of H. A. Rey.” Because it is genius.

It wasn’t until I picked up a barely-used copy at Pandemonium last year that I really started to remember it from my own childhood. And the narrative twists that I swallowed unblinkingly as a child now strike me as both wonderful and incredible.
