In observance of Father’s Day, I
chose not to review a book but rather to share my thoughts on story time with
my daddy. Sometimes when Mommy is gone or is busy—or sometimes just because he
wants to--Daddy reads to me, and that always makes story time extra special. Which
books we read is not important because story time with Daddy is not really
about learning my ABC’s or numbers or colors. Neither is it about trucks, or
puppies, or roly-poly pangolins, fascinating as those subjects may be. Story
time with Daddy is about sharing an experience, about spending quality time
together. It’s about the two of us cuddling in the big chair and winding down
from a busy day of work or play. And it’s about being assured just before I’m
tucked into bed for the night that my daddy loves me and will always take good
care of me. Happy Father’s Day to my daddy and to all daddies who share the
gifts of time and books with their children.
I
give story time with Daddy a whole big bag of goldfish!
Great photo and excellent point, Master Brooks!
