Comfy and cozy

Six year old Peyton curls up on her mother's lap, learning to love reading as much as her mom does.

    Yes, it's a Kindle. Believe it or not, the kid was reading a Terry Pratchett novel! He mom was helping her out a bit, but Peyton's got incredible reading skills for a first grader. (Peyton is the granddaughter of our very colosest friends...so sort of a granddaughter by proxy for me!)

    I just had the conversation of Kindle v. book the other day. I still like holding on to books - too many. I have 5 full bookshelves. That said, I'm trying to read "The Power Broker" (about Robert Moses) and it's 1300+ pages. I think a Kindle would be better for that.

    One of the best things a parent can pass on to a child is love of reading. That and critical analysis, which often comes from reading!

    Nice image!

    I like your use of the vignette effect, puts the focus right on the comfy and cosy subjects.

    I do like the processing, the vignette underlines the message of the picture

    A precious picture. It speaks volumes. I hope that you made a copy for them.

    Been away for two weeks and just checked your posts. This and the candy are my favourites, and I hope they are connected.

    That vignette is a wonderful way to frame this lovely image.
