Christmas Picture Book Roundup
Did you know I’m a storyteller? In all fairness, you might say I’m a story reader. My “storytelling” is usually a hybrid of reading and telling. But I’m a good reader (if I do say so, who shouldn’t).

Winter Adventure
Our Christmas celebration didn’t exactly come together as planned this year. Or maybe I should say that our Christmas plans evolved and changed quickly from day to day during the month of December.
