January Books



Swear On This Life is amazing!  It is about a writing professor who reads a popular book and discovers that the story line is based on her childhood and is written by her childhood best friend.


I love Ellie Kemper from The Office and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and My Squirrel Days was just as funny.  I am always interested in learning about what makes others who they are and enjoyed reading about her different roles in life.


Everything Happens For a Reason is written by a professor from Duke Divinity School who studies the prosperity gospel and was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer.  Her faith is inspiring!

Manatee Park

Yesterday we went to Manatee Park and enjoyed the beautiful weather!  We walked along the sidewalk to check out all of the viewing spots, stopping to learn about the manatees along the way.  Ava's class studied manatees earlier this school year and she shared many facts with us :)  She would say, "In the non-fiction book I read....".  It was adorable.  We want to go back and rent a kayak when it is a bit warmer.
