Crossing the Road
I much prefer an actual book over reading on an tech device. We are trying so hard to raise our kids to go outside a play to be kids, but also to enjoy reading. I have read to Anna almost since birth. She always has a bedtime story, She also enjoys reading on her own and is starting to put stories together.
Rich's son Mason HATES reading. He wants to play on electronics ALL DAY LONG. His mother, is not a good mother, she will give anything to not have to deal with her children. Therefore when Mason is with her he spends hours upon hours on his phone. When he is at our house we practically have to drag him out of the house to play.
Morgan, Rich's daughter likes to read, but again prefers to play games or watch videos on her phone. Again when she's with mom, it's all phone time so mom doesn't have to parent.
Rich and I are trying to get full custody of all our kids. I need to get Anna settled in here. Her father is having a baby with his on-again off-again girlfriend and Anna is already worried her dad won't have time for her. Sadly she's not wrong, but I'm trying to not let her feel that way.
I wish the other parents had the kids best interest at heart, but they both are unmedicated bi-polar narcissist, and they just won't give. It's going to be a very long and expensive process, i'm affraid.

; The Lyke Wake Dirge or Young Lochnivar. The children merely got to suffer in silence.

I only ever knew it as James James etc... YL may just be under Lochnivar ~ Sir Walter Scott. The Lyke Wake is a traditional ~ very old & sometimes set to music. I've loved it ever since I first read it as a child.
