Lucy and the Secret Room #AD #raisingareader

I love getting books to share with the kids.  Some Broxton gets, some are for Savannah and then there are some that I read that aren't really age appropriate (too old or to young) and then we either keep to be read later, or we share with one of their schools.  Some we even take to our local Little Free Libraries.  Either way, they are enjoyed and this is another...  I wanted to keep it for Savannah, but felt she had a few more years before she would read, so we actually sent this out to the Little Free Library world for enjoyment!    FTC Compliant Review Policy:    The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.

 You know my family and you know that we love to read.  If you are new here...a  quick background...  When I was younger, my Nana would have me read the newspaper to her to expand my vocabulary. My cousin and I lived for the summer reading programs at the local library. My mom loves to read and I am trying with everything I have in me to pass along the love of reading to my kids.  Broxton used to love to read and would put books on his list all the time, and don't get me started on book fairs!  Savannah is following along in the same way.  Our house has a fair share of books.. some in each room, as you never know when you might want to grab a book!  We have even started putting little free libraries in our community. (We started with one in Lithia Springs, Ga at the Harley Dealership.)  Now, we have one at the local Ear, Nose and Throat Doctor and another is about to go out at a restaurant.  With me being fortunate to review books, we get them and read and enjoy.  Some we keep for

You know how life gets crazy busy at times and you just need to make yourself take a break for you and slow down?  That is how it is for me, so I decided to take it back to a movie in our collection that makes me slow down and appreciate everything.  Just thought I would bring it back for you guys as well!    Okay y'all, you know I love the military... and with that, I love Gary Sinise.  He is an active supporter of our men and women that serve/ have served.  I was excited to get I Still Believe as a movie to watch and he was in it!   This movie is a great one and really hits the heart, have you heard of it?  I did not know it was from the creators of I Can Only Imagine (and to be honest, I knew the song... but did not know there was a movie, but I LOVE THE SONG!)   You know me, I shed a few tears while watching this one, but as we all know... sometimes tears are a good thing.  Let me know if you have seen either movie!     FTC Compliant Review Policy:    The product(s) featured in
