I spend the holiday with them and reading, puzzles, and board games are part of our shared fun. The femme of the three, at age 3, inquires each time we speak on the phone: Nana, will you read to me when you visit? It is my pleasure to do so, as I read to their father when he was little until he was 7 or 8. Reading is such a good way to have a cuddle and share the joy of books.
