Dad's Idea

Last semester Julie had an opportunity to write a children's book, and took it. I'm so glad she did. She based the book on a childhood memory. We had cows when we were growing up, and when we were little we all always wanted horses, but Dad said they weren't very useful cause you can't eat them. We, of course, though, argued that they are useful because you can ride them! Then Dad told us that you can ride cows, too! So we kids rode our cows. :) Anyways, Julie wrote the story all cute, and drew the illustrated pictures for the book. It's so special! Jennifer has the book in a basket by her and Jordan's entertainment center, and when we were there with a bunch of girlfriends (for my b-day party:), Audrey was babysitting this little boy, Josiah (one of the teachers' kids). We were all around the table talking, and he wandered right over and picked up the book all on his own and started looking at it, and pointing to the pictures, and saying, "what's that?", "look at that!". It was so cute! So I sneaked up and took a picture of him - SO CUTE! Anyways, I knew Julie's book would be a seller ;) Write another one, Jules! You're the best children's book author I know! :)
