    What a lot of neat things you’ve been able to do with Logan on your Wednesdays together! Our family was very much into the local library – our King County library system is awesome. I started the kids out with story time when they were just small, and our weekly Tuesday library visits continued through until they hit high school and schedules just didn’t permit. (Although Buddy actually did his senior project volunteer time tutoring at the library) We would check out books and Tuesday nights were “reading dinners”. Hubby and I still carry on that tradition even though all the kids are grown and out of the house 🙂 Logan is lucky to be introduced so early to music, books, nature and his city!

      Yay for libraries! I love that! I have been trying REALLY hard to get Logan to like reading but we’ve struggled. He’s too active and doesn’t sit still long enough to engage in a book. I am hoping that he calms down soon and we can start a reading habit because I love libraries! 😀

        I bet he will be a great reader eventually. Role modeling plays a large part in that, I think. My oldest was diagnosed borderline ADD, and one of the things that made the professionals say “borderline” was that he could sit still for hours for books and Legos, though that was about it!

          I hope someday! I’ve started reading to Logan at bedtime when he’s in his crib. It’s about 50-50 whether he lays there and pays attention to the book!

          I think finding what your kid is interested in, helps. My husband has ADD tendencies but he said that when it was something he was interested in, he could focus on it.
