    Yes and then sometimes my dad would come in and make up a story for me after my mom read. We played a game, I gave him three words and he had to use them all in a story.

    No my mom had me when she was 14 years old, and the sad thing is i have an older sister that she had when she was 13. We were lucky we had a bed, we all grew up together. I hate it when people ask my mom if we are sisters, my mom gets flattered, but its tuff for me and my sister. We used to go school cloths shopping at the school dumpster at the end of the year when teachers would throw out clothing kids left behind.My mom always says she did her best for us, but i think what was best was to not get pregnant so young, or to have givin us up. Oh well thats the past, im not trying to have a pitty party. So if you are reading this, please read to your kids, it would have been nice if thats how i grew up :j

    I still have the storybook she used to read me. I never finished any of the stories ever, until i was 10. I have the book, and it is probably 1 of a Kind in the U.S....It was written a few years after Walt Disney died. :D (a decade or 2...) I lost the main cover...

    yes - and I always enjoyed it very much

    when I got older and was learning to read she made me read her a story every once in awhile (not all the time)

    but actually my mom taught me to read before I went to school

    No, but she would read me words, beautifully illustrated from my very first book. This incredibly colouful dictionary.

    She'd read me a word and I'd define it.

    Or she'd read a definition and I would give her the word corresponding? Good Night, good people!!!

    Once in a while we'd start a book and read a few chapters every night.

    I read to my daughter every night until she was old enough to want to read to herself, which she still does. Now she reads her book and I read mine, and then we usually trade :)
