Love it! Someone taught her right. :)
wonderful mind
Gosh, I love Sloane. Have I mentioned how much I love Sloane?
ah...she has the gift
She has a special way of seeing (like her mom), it would seem. I love how children speak their world.
That's one child with great insight,
hahaha, she is smart, that girl :)
I LOVE it! One of the best quotes ever ...
Reading this is so heartwarming, Relyn, not only for Sloane's wonderful words but because they show the care you are taking to instill such appreciation for literature in her. Absolutely priceless, my friend, and a marvelous testament to you and Jeffrey. xo – g
That should be framed and hung up in a classroom. With an illustration :)
You have taught her well. Just beautiful! and so perfect coming from her mouth.
Wonderful! So, so true.
I would just wither and die without my books. They are part of what I am.
Well, that apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Poetic words so young -- she resembles her mother!
great quote. Books are magical and extraordinary!
Dazzling... that is just dazzling! That girl of yours knows truth and beauty... I wonder where she gets that from? ;o) Happy Days to you all ((HUGS))
super job, Relyn, as a mom and teacher! because where else would she get this truth? love, love, love the quote! BTW, I'm adding it to my quote journal. :D
Wow, wow...insightful and poignant, my feelings exactly :)
okay, i'm officially in love with your daughter.
That Sloane... she just charms the pants off of us all.
