Do you remember when you were younger and your parents read to you before going to bed? . . . Well I do. It was one of my favourite times of the day. It was the time of day when we would get ready for bed by putting our pajamas on, brushing our teeth, then huddling onto someone's bed to listen to my Dad's epic story time. One of the stories he read to us was THE HOBBIT. It was the huge text book sized version with the illustrations - and it was awesome. We got the chance to hear an awesome story while having some family bonding time. What could be better?
Unfortunately at some point between elementary school and high school the whole idea of reading aloud became scary and uncool. But this weekend I became reacquainted with awesomeness of being read to, and reading to someone else.
Seriously - if any couples out there are looking for a fun romantic way to spend time together, I'd like to suggest reading to each other. If you already do read to each other - then good for you! But if you don't and you think it's a silly thing to do, well get over yourselves and try it out. You might be surprised.
