A Quote for the Day

"A little library, growing every year, is an honorable part of a man's history. It is a man's duty to have books. A library is not a luxury, but one of the necessaries of life. Be certain that your house is adequately and properly furnished -- with books rather than with furniture. Both if you can, but books at any rate."

~Henry Ward Beecher

If you could my husband's office, you would think it was a library. He is a avid reader and keeps every book, I mean every book. :)
Love ya, Aunt Diane

My grandpa was just comment on the importance of reading in a person's life. He mentioned that it seems boys today aren't taught to have a love for reading. I hope that won't be the case in our lives.

Daniel and I just finished Seeker's Adventure and we both loved it. I am going to get the whole series. Thanks for introducing us!
