Wednesday Musing - Vocabulary

When I was growing up I can remember how good I felt when my mom would look at me and say, "Oh, that's a good word, Amy." I was always an advanced reader and picked up a better than average vocabulary for a child. I still love to read and delight in discovering new words. Unfortunately, as a mom of three, I don't have the time to devote to reading that I would like. I used to devour books. Now I read at a snail's pace. Someday, I will have free time to devote to the written word again. But, for now, I will have to be content with reading the "Magic Treehouse" chapter books to the kids.
