Pooh and the sliders

We went to dinner the other night with some friends who have two children and the dad was talking about how he read books to his son while in the womb and now he is a voracious reader...

Skip ahead to two nights later (after I went to Black and Read and bought 15 used books for 40 bucks-all the best books too!) and now my man reads to the sliders at night before we fall asleep. Yay!

We started with my all-time-favorite...


And then we read Nate's all-time-favorite:

Which is a surprisingly funny book. Both of us were laughing out loud at great passages from In Which a House Is Built at Pooh Corner for Eeyore such as:


The more he looked inside, the more piglet wasn't there

And

He looked up at his clock, which had stopped at five minutes to eleven some weeks ago.

And the part I just love:

The more it snows
(Tiddely pom)
The more it goes
(Tiddely pom)
The more it goes
(Tiddely pom)
On snowing.

And nobody knows
(Tiddely pom)
How cold my toes
(Tiddely pom)
How cold my toes
(Tiddely pom)
Are growing.
