It is well known that I've dreaded the milestones... these days just go by entirely too fast and I want to hold on to it all. Reading is my one true exception (though Andy the tank learning to walk was ultimately a very welcome thing). Read, Grace read! For a child that lives in a fairy land and asks every day for us to take her to "far off places like Paris," I can't think of anything more exciting! The box also represents her very first homework. She will be filling this box with reading material (hand made books etc) and her teacher assures us that by the end of the year, she'll need a second box to hold it all. I'll need a second room to contain my pride.
