At this time of year there are not many moments to call your own {I know that feeling well}. So here is my secret of stolen morning moments given to tea and a book at the kitchen table; sun seeping in with promise and new energy. Sipping tea, turning pages, enjoying a quiet home until the rush begins, the kid awakes hungry and curious and tasks come tumbling at me. Time never waits. That truism is a reminder that we have to "make" time in our lives: we construct it, carve it out, give it, steal it. Always take it by force. And in the same way, reading is a habit, a daily ritual; one I want to teach my daughter to steal away from everyday life too.
