365 days ago I was having a very big day. I got up very early and had breakfast with a bunch of women, went and had my hair done, put on a pretty dress, oh, and got married. It was a very lovely day (although it started with a thunder storm, which worried me a bit) and one of the very happiest of my life. In fact, I even got some reading in!
While I was waiting for my bridesmaids to do their hair:
While I was waiting for the ceremony to start:
Now, a year later, I’m sitting in bed typing this with little baby Daniel draped across my stomach (he wiggled himself there, evidently he would like to sleep across instead of on me). Daniel’s 2.5 weeks old now and has been a great early anniversary present. I think he’s hitting a growth spurt, as he’s been a bit extra hungry and fussy the past few days, but he’s still a sweet little peanut.
There is not yet any photographic evidence of me reading to him, but I do have a picture of him ‘reading’ Watchmen with his daddy, the pictures have lots of great contrast for him to look at:

Happy Anniversary! And what a sweet little guy you have there (he probably won’t like being called that when he’s older, but for now, he doesn’t know the difference).

Aww! Happy anniversary! Such a sweet post! I like the close-up photo of you. It is harder to tell what you look like in the second photo that you often use. You are so pretty! I love that you were reading that morning. I would think I would be way too frazzled to concentrate on reading the morning of my wedding! Thank you for sharing your special day with us. And Daniel does make the perfect gift, doesn’t he?

I still can’t believe you were calm enough to read on your wedding day. I was smoking like a fien and drinking wine with my bridesmaids.
Such a sweet picture of your hubby and baby.
Keep up the reading out loud. I really believe it helps grow a love of reading and calmness in a child. At least it did with my first born, not so much with my second until recently.

Congratulations and Happy Anniversary – and it’s obvious your little one will devour books as much as you do!
I wish I got some reading in on my wedding day…but we had an ice storm the night before so things were extra hectic in the morning!
