Book Club Evening

Last night was book club. Four friends who have gotten together to "discuss" books for over 4 years now. What a wonderful evening we always have. We watched our 4 daughters grow up together, go to church together, and graduate from high school and college together. To tell the truth, much of our book club discussion centers more on our children's lives than the lives of those in our books. But what a good excuse to get together.

It seems like we are able to solve most of the world's problems if anyone would just ever ask us. We have the perfect solution to the type of discipline today's children need. We've been there, done that. And we can move a child out of school, across country, have them settled, and be on our merry way within a week's time. We are very efficient.

Four very good friends who have cried together, laughed and celebrated together, danced and sang together. Always there for each other in good times and bad. Reading a good book is just an undercover reason to share more memorable times!

Karen works at the library so always has a heads-up on new and interesting books. I picked this one. Got the idea from Barnes and Nobles as a recommendation and it looked good. Has gone to #2 on the NY Times bestseller list. I had 3 other suggestions too. If there are books, I will never be bored!
