Let's Prioritize

Official Birthday Season has begun. July has its share of family birthdays...but August is simply overrun with them! Throw in a few close friends' birthdays, add three wedding anniversaries for good measure, and you have a perfect picture of celebratory craziness!

So someone tell me why I am reading, not one, not two, but three books right now! I pulled Until We Reach Home by Lynn Austin from Kati's bookshelf and began to read it. Then an Amazon order arrived with Read for the Heart: Whole Books for Wholehearted Families by Sarah Clarkson, and The Reluctant Entertainer: Every Woman's Guide to Simple and Gracious Hospitality by Sandy Coughlin. And I need to read them all. Now.



I suppose I can fit in a few pages between birthday shopping. Surely Ron and Bekah won't expect dinner every night. The birthday party-ers won't notice a bit of dust, will they? And Kristin is making the birthday cakes this year. Hmmmm...

  1. I'm only reading one book, but I have a long list of projects to be done between baking the cakes and busy weekends and waiting for Baby! Makes the head spin.

  2. I have that problem, reading more than one book at a time, I thought I was the only one who did that!
    You will love Lynn Austin's book. I read that one and I'm currently reading, Though Waters Roar. I love all her books, she's one of my favorite authors.

  3. Sarah's book is wonderful!

    I almost always have a few books going at the same time. I've told my family I think I have reading ADHD. :)
