I'm excited for the summer reading season.  With feet in the kiddie pool,on the dock, in the gazebo by lantern light, while camping, at the beach...lots of great opportunities to make my way through some books.

Here's my nice new pile of books for the summer:

Steady Days: A Journey Toward Intentional, Professional Motherhood by Jamie C. Martin
Secret Daughter by Shili Somaya Gowda
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
The Hurried Child: Growing up too Fast too Soon by David Elkind
Unless by Carol Shields
The Orange Fish (short stories) by Carol Shields
Women, Food and God by Geneen Roth
Sippy Cups are Not for Chardonnay by Staphanie Wilder-Taylor (this is a re-read, because it is so funny and entertaining...great beach read, or multi-tasking light reading material)
 
As well as my magazines, Macleans, Mothering and often the Saturday Globe and Mail.
Yay Summer!!!!  Well i read in ther winter too...but it is so nice to just be outside with a book and an eye on the kids.  A fenced yard is key
