Brooklyn Van is 40% done with On Becoming Babywise
My mom and sister had encouraged me to read this but the internet had convinced me this philosophy was probably old and bad. So far, though, it’s been such a voice of reason. And it’s made me feel decently good about where I’m currently at with my daughter and her routines, and it’s given me very practical tips on what to do next.

I'm ready for this book to pick up the pace. Like, I get that the dad is dying and the mom is cold and unfeeling. Can we please move on.

The best time to read this devotional is every day leading up to Christmas. The second best time is whenever you can, however you can. I guess I’m settling for second best.

I feel like I halfway knew all of this information. Getting it all together is very helpful though. I love the way this writer writes. Very practical but not boring at all.

This is the type of book you read a few page of before bed to get yourself to fall asleep.

I hate to do catchup on these things because it feels like I don’t get to sit and revel in it. But I just did catch up and it was oh so good. Marveling in why God did for us on Christmas.

Brooklyn Van is 21% done with Daisy Jones & The Six
All of TJR’s books are different but good and I love that. This one tells the stories through interviews, which is different and I like it right now but I wonder if it will get old. I’m kinda into the story, feeling for the characters, and wondering when Daisy is going to really come in.

This book is so good. Captures the desires of my heart in a way few Christian non fiction books do. Can only read one chapter at a time and then I have to sit with it. Also the language from the 1940’s is just perfect.
