Need Something to Read...and Relax?

Try: Slowly, Slowly, Slowly Said the Sloth by Eric Carle.

I kid you not. This book will totally relax you during story time right before bed. Maybe that is always relaxing for you, but sometimes for us, we rush through it. I know, I know. We shouldn't. It is precious time. But truth be told, it can get rushed.

However, every. single. time. I read this book to Wiley, I slow down my pace of life and mind to about 0.5 mph. Maybe even 0 mph. Or is it km/h over here?

I think it is because you have to get in a sloth-type of mind. (Although the sloth will point out that he is in fact not lazy.) You know, channel your inner sloth.

And repeat "slowly, slowly, slowly" quite a few times.

(Oh, and it is Eric Carle, and who doesn't love his books?)

What I'm Doing Now...

Thanks Eli!

...just reading these [imported] beauties.

{Did I tell you that when Wiley sees the picture of Taylor Swift on People, he tells you that she is his girlfriend? Sometime he runs around possessively holding it to his chest. I kid you not.}

What are your favorite magazines? Are you sorely going to miss Cottage Living like me? Or were you more of a Southern Accents kind of gal? Perhaps you prefer the classic Sports Illustrated so you know what your hubby or boyfriend is talking about. Do you like reading about how unique and fantastic Alabama is (as if you didn't already know it was the bee's knees.) in Thicket?

(come on...tell me. i know you are out there reading this.)
