One of my new morning rituals is that I spend some time reading every morning while I finish my milky Earl Grey tea (
Diana-style).
Now, it's not that I am suddenly jumping on the bandwagon of adults reading children's literature (and I don't really see anything wrong with that other than that they should be reading more
crime dramas), but this book is actually one of the more delightful
reclaimed artifacts from my youth.
How did I recognize the book and know it's not really some copy my parents picked up at a flea market and
thought was my heritage? It's inscribed.
This is the copy that my elementary school BFF, Valerie, her sister and her mom gave me on my 7th birthday. (Good inscribing, Susan.)
The great thing? Valerie is now my Facefriend. And she has a daughter. And I bet her daughter will read
Charlotte's Web.
Sunrise, sunset.

I wish I had time to read in the morning. That would probably require waking up before 8:00 am, though. Hm.
