This sighting is not unusual. My children love to read. It was the timing that had me baffled (and elated) as this occurred while I was making dinner one night. I barely even knew she was there. My dinner-making routine usually involves both children running around wildly upstairs, knowing I'm deeply involved in my culinary efforts. So as I turned from the fridge and spotted her sitting so sweetly, I grabbed the camera and hid around the corner. There she sat quietly, "reading" one of Brendan's books from school, completely engrossed and unaware. My heart warmed and chills ran down my spine. I wanted to sit and watch for hours. But these moments are fleeting and she was gone within a few minutes. My sweet and beautiful book loving daughter :)
