Bradley is always happy when Danielle arrives next to his chair with a book, and Danielle is always happy to climb up and hear a story. [Brad adds: I'm glad it comes across that way. Actually, I do tell her sometimes that she will have to wait; "Daddy is reading the Bible (or something else) right now." Learning to wait is perhaps as important as learning to read. This session was especially interesting. Danielle insisted that the oranges were apples. I kept repeating "orange," and she kept repeating "apple." This went on for a couple of minutes while I showed her the difference between apples and oranges. She, a 1-year-old, was actually insisting: "No, Daddy. Apple!" Finally she understood and called the oranges by their right name.]
