The Reading Station

Both of our boys love books, and train books are their favorite. Perhaps it is more obvious with Benji, who will commonly bring his most coveted books to adults that he would like to read to him, but Trey Davey has his own unique love affair with books. He doesn’t sit still as often as his brother to be read to, but will hover around the adult reading a book he likes. Of course neither boy can actually read yet, but both will turn the pages with great concentration perhaps recalling the story that had been previously read to them or imagining their own stories to accompany to book’s illustrations. We have amassed quite a train book collection already and haven’t even left the reading station; I can only imagine how many car loads of books that will travel down our tracks once the boy’s reading railroad gets moving.
