Wordless Wednesday – Reading

Oh, so sweet!
I love that my daughter can read to my son. It is sweet to watch and he loves it!

Great photo!

I feel like you do sometimes Janice, wishing my kids were closer in age. But then moments like these where the older child really shines as the big sibling makes me happy it is the way it is. My 7 year old daughter loves to read to her baby sister! What a treat this is for Olivia to get to read with Jackson!!

You’re teaching them well. If one loves reading, the world of knowledge awaits.

Plus, this moment is too precious.

Now that my older girls are starting to read, it is so cute to watch them read to Becca – when she’ll let them, that is.

Such a sweet photo!

Wow I’m first!

That’s an amazing picture!
And don’t worry about the age difference.
Our kids are 17 & 5.
Yep, 2 kids…this fall one will be a senior & one will be a kindergartener!

That is so wonderfully sweet. It doesn’t matter how far apart they are, especially when you can capture a moment like this!

What a precious picture! It’s so sweet of Jackson to read to little Olivia.

That is a PRECIOUS photo!

That is just too precious! *heart melting*

What an incentive for him to read and practice reading!
Great photo!

Absolutely adorable!

Such a precious moment If we are successful in having another child, our children will have similar age gap as well.

Doesn’t that just melt your heart?

Too Cute!

The earlier, the better.

I love when you have to keep reading the same page over & over, and then they try to read themselves ~ but are just learning to talk!

I don’t mind having kids who are far apart in age. The older one will look after the younger ones. He can be quite helpful.

so so sweet. I love this bonding moment!

I love to see brothers and sisters being all close and caring – just wait until she’s old enough to rule the roost!

Great picture and great WW! I think it is tremendous that they can work and help each other together.

That is just prieless!

That photo is honestly too precious for words!

LOVE that photo.

What a sweet moment you captured!

Cool, I have a reading one as well!

There definitely are advantages of an age difference. My boys are about four years apart. I really hope my big guy will read to his little brother soon.

awww! what a sweet moment they’re sharing!

That is the sweetest!

Picture perfect!

That is SOOOO sweet!!!!

I love this photo! What a great pic. My kids love books too, especially my 3 yr old. She’ll sit and pull book after book off the shelf. We have about 400 kids books in our library. It’s outgrowing our house!

Such a sweet photo!

I have a picture like that! They are so sweet together.

That is so precious. When my older tries to read to my younger, it becomes a battle of wills. I think they are too close together in age for that.

It really looks like she’s tracking right with Jackson, their eyes are directed to the same spot. Isn’t it a help to have an older brother? It buys you time…sometimes…when you really NEED it.

I bet in a few years when you “look back”, this will be one of your favorite pictures.

Listen my a person that has a 11 1/2 year gap between her and her only other sibling, same parents, Your kids will be fine. The fighting is probably way less! I love my brother more than life itself and we have along had a good time together.
In a month I will have children 15, 10, 5……. no not planned that way but it works out sooooo fine! I have a built in babysitter. They are not into each others toys, books, friends, or interests. I love it! Each kids gets one on one time, preschool years, with mom while the others are at school.
Great shot!

What a wonderful picture. My kids are spaced with about 5-6 years between each (14,7,3). There are both pros and cons with this spacing. I’ve had alone time with each while the other has started school.

What a sweet pic of your kids reading together!

There is nothing like a good book shared between siblings!

Jackson is such a loving big brother!

Those are the best pix ” real life”…!

What an adorable picture!

Great picture–I hope our oldest (almost 6) will read to the new baby!

Oh I love this picture, mine is my youngest giving his little big sister a Bear hug. Happy WW!

Ages aside, it’s still a wonderful shot of them sitting together.

Aww, that is so sweet.

Nice picture it’s nice when they are young and get along with eachother. I hope it stays that way. Happy WW

Great photo! He makes a great big brother doesn’t he?

I love that photo! What a wonderful bond!

Storytime, I love it!!!

That is a magical picture!

That is truly precious!!

Doesn’t it just make your heart melt?

I even cleared the skillet supper off of my link but it must not have deleted. Oh well. Sorry about that.

Child spacing is always a quandary. There are pros and cons to having them closer or further apart. I think it is great you got at least two, no matter what their spacing!

Oh LOL, mine is almost about reading this week too!#
I love your photo, it’s so sweet!

I think that’s awesome. I can’t wait for my oldest to be able to read to my younger three!

So sweet! I love watching my daughter read!

I love reading to my kids. Shel Silvertin is still one of my all time favorites!

LOVE the photo! My son learned to read before he turned 4….just because he sat on my lap and looked at the page while I read aloud to his two big sisters….he memorized the words!

I love story time with my boys!

Precious…..Could be a commercial.

It looks like there are 2 books there. One for each of them?

What a great photo! That is really sweet! Candid shots are the best…

We have four children, 18 years old, 16 years old, almost 3 years old and just 9 months old. Our children are very close and I feel truly benefit from their special relationship and difference in age. And yes, reading is one of their favorite past-times!

You have a beautiful photo and two very beautiful children!

Happy WW!
