Please make sure and vote on the book that you would like to read next! The poll will be open through Wednesday, July 23rd. Once we know the next book, we will take a couple of weeks to make sure that everyone has their book before getting started. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
Read more...I just finished "Bringing Up Boys" by Dr. James Dobson and it was great. It is a "must read" for anyone with sons or grandsons. It will be one that I plan to go back and read every few years as my boys grow and develop through different stages of life.
I promise to post something on "And Then I Had Kids" within the next couple of days. We will have to work out any kinks as we go along, but it seems like the easiest way to do this is to give each other feedback and encouragement by using the comments section.
In the meanwhile...check out the poll to the left of the screen and be sure to vote! Obviously, this blog set-up should enable everyone to go at their own rate without feeling pressure to rush through a chapter. However, your input is important because it will show me how quickly most of you prefer to read, so I can try to go that rate posting blogs and questions.
It looks as though our first book will be "And Then I Had Kids: Encouragement for Mothers of Young Children" by Susan Alexander Yates. Obviously, we can all do this at our own pace. I think it would work best if we were at least somewhat close to each other. I am going to set a goal for myself to start reading next week. I will try a chapter or two per week and see how things go from there.
There is a pretty cool feature on here to set up a poll. I think it might be a good feature to try out for the next book. Some books already in the hat are "Choices: For Women Who Long to Discover Life's Best" by Mary Farrar and "Waking the Dead" by John Eldredge. If you have any more ideas, please leave a comment!!
