On the The Burns and Allen Show, George Burns would end his show with "Say goodnight, Gracie" and his wife would reply 'Goodnight'. As we end our night in my household we end it with a book. A bit of a normal routine unless we get thrown of course somewhere along in the evening.
The book we read is called, "I love You Through and Through" by Bernadette Rossetti-Shustak. It's a great book and I've added my own little gestures to go along as I read the book. The little one enjoys the book which I am totally happy about. He grins and smiles really hard when I pull the book out or when I ask if he'd like to read a book before sleepy time. And at the end of the book he claps and says again, again - so again we go! Don't ask how long this goes on....because some nights we repeat and repeat and repeat the book...other nights he just crawls away and lays down (so nice of him).
There are tons of great books out there to tuck your kid in with but as you can see we love this one! However, I've been thinking (and that's it) about retiring this book for a bit and searching for some new ones. Any suggestions?
