2016 Reads: January

In keeping with my "One Word for 2016" I've been doing quite a bit of reading.  I got a Kindle Paperwhite for Christmas from "Santa" and it has been SUCH a blessing!!  I absolutely LOVE it.  Which is honestly a little shocking to me because I've always been an old school gal who loves the feel of paper in my hands.  I mean, I don't do internet banking, I handwrite thank-you's and I mail out paper invitations for events.  But anyway, as a mom, and especially one with an infant, the Kindle has been amazing.  The paperwhite is lit so that I can lay in bed and nurse baby Joel and read a book after he falls asleep without having a light on bothering him.  OR in situations that require holding the baby, as in he passes out on me in the afternoon, I can easily hold the kindle and "turn pages" all with one hand while holding him with the other arm.  AND you guys know I'm a frugal lady... Kindle books are also cheaper!!  (And can even be free when borrowed from the NC Digital Library or borrowed from a friend!)

OK so here's what I've read this month...

• "Simply Tuesday" by Emily Freeman  
• "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen (My 1st Jane Austen book)
• "The Crazy Lives of Police Wives" by Carolyn Whiting and Carolyn LaRoche 
• "Every Bitter Thing Is Sweet": Tasting the Goodness of God in All Things by Sara Hagerty

...and half way through "French Kids Eat Everything" by  Karen Le Billon

More reads to come!  What are you currently reading??  I have a wish list of books in my queue, but certainly always looking for inspiration.
