we like...

We like Wednesday...and this is a favorite.  What better way to bond with a child other than cuddling and reading a book together.  One of my all time favorite children's books is The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrated by Clement Hurd.  I was given this book when I was pregnant with my first child and hadn't heard of it.  After my first read I was a big puddle on the floor.  A simple, endearing story of a "bunny's imaginary game of hide-and-seek and the lovingly steadfast mother who finds him every time". Both my son's loved it when I read them this story and would often pick it for their bedtime story.  Our copy now sits in my night table as my youngest son declared when he turned 4 that the story made him "too emotional", reducing me again to a big puddle.  A must read, sure to give you a warm, happy feeling.
