My husband tagged me because our son tagged him. Here it is:
1 Pick up a book that is near to you
2 Go to page twelve in the book
3 Read the first two sentences and post it on your blog
4 Also post the book title and the name of the author
5 Tag 3 other People : )
I had to wait a while on this one, since none of the books I was reading had anything I thought HSB would deem appropriate (not on page 12 anyway). You needn't be wary of the types of novels I read, it just happens that the first two sentences of the three I currently have on the go don't necesarily meet a family friendly rating. For those of you who are totally nosy-heads, like me, I am reading My Name is Asher Lev, How to Get Pregnant Naturally, (courtesy of my Mum), and Crunchy Cons. So, I will quote from page twelve of The Swiss Family Robinson, which I am also reading and writing curriculum for ...
As soon as we could gather our children around us on dry land, we knelt to offer thanks and praise for our merciful escape, and with full hearts we commended ourselves to God's good keeping for the time to come.
All hands then briskly fell to the work of unloading, and oh, how rich we felt ourselves as we did so!
Seriously, how beautiful and all-encompassing is that ... for daily living, for homeschool encouragement and for pressing in to win the prize.
