Our boy loves books. Loves books. Loves them so much that his 8th or 9th english word (before "mama" even) is "book." Although it comes out sounding like "butt" more often than not. Occasionally he'll get the "k" in the right place at the right time.
At this moment yesterday, when he was burying himself in the contents of just one of his bookshelves (the boy has four different bookshelves), I started crying when I thought of the boy that was in the transition home two months ago with his one little touch and feel book that he read over and over.
How his world has changed.
How his eyes have been opened.
Through books.
Through experience.
Through turning pages.
Every child should have access to books.
Every child.
But that is another post for another day.
Here is Million's latest acquisition to his book collection. Mostly because Mama loves anything illustrated by Kadir Nelson. His illustrations did not fail me this time.
