Dear Readers,

When I started teaching... I started reading. I read all the 6-8 grade literature and then more. I now LOVE reading and ALWAY have a book on my dresser. Reading lets my mind wonder into a new world without diapers and crying babies. But reading is more fun when you share. For this blog I will write about the GOOD books I read. I will write about books that are worthy of reading and ones I truly recommend. Enjoy your readings.

The Christmas Box by Richard Paul Evans

The Christmas Box was a very short read (finished it in one day), and a great book around the holidays.  I thought I would have been more emotional when reading this book because it is about a mother who lost a child.  The mother keeps writing letters to her lost daughter and keeps then in "The Christmas Box".  It is called the Christmas Box because Heavenly Father gave His Son away on the first Christmas many years ago.

This book reminded me that I WILL see my Kaden again.  I will get to be his Mother in heaven.  God knows I lost a son. God lost (or gave away freely) His Son. 

I wish I could have cried while reading this story.  Sometime I just want to cry and remember Kaden.  So today I will go and write him a letter on his blog. 

This is a great book for anyone who has lost someone.
