On a recent visit, Henry loved to just roam around our house gathering little toys – especially anything with wheels!

Darcie had told me he loved books almost as much as vehicles, but I hadn’t seen it in action yet.

On the first evening of their visit, I was doing something with Claire and Matthew in Matthew’s bedroom. In walks Henry, and he beelines straight for the book case of board books. He stands in front of it, stretches out both arms to the side, palms up, and says: Thank you! Thank you!

Considering he hadn’t said barely another word the entire day, I now know that this is a kid who LOVES books!
