N, My 카지노 가입 쿠폰est Daughter

(Written when N was 11 years 카지노 가입 쿠폰, but now she's 12)

N loves reading and she reads a lot and really fast. Sometimes I seriously wonder if she really understands everything she reads because she finishes a normal-length fiction in a day or two. The number of books she read in the last 6 months is probably more than the number of books I read in my entire life. That’s how much she reads. When I read, I read to learn something. The books I read are all non-fiction. It’s because there is so much to learn and my time is scarce. A few times, I suggested to N that she read some non-fictions too. But she had no interest. She would rather be entertained by the story in those chapter books. And honestly, there aren’t that many non-fiction books for a 11-year old, other than biographies. So, an idea hit me recently. Why don’t I write a book for her? She will probably finish reading it in one sitting, and she might forget what she read because it will be one of 15 books she read in that month. But even then, it will all be worth it. I believe and I hope. So the book, or a series of blog posts, I am about to begin will be written with N in mind as the main prospective reader, just because she’s way closer than her younger sisters to the day she will be sent out to the world. Hi N. This is for you and then for K and B a few years later.


I wanted to make my relationship with N so good that 카지노 가입 쿠폰 would come home from school and tell me everything 카지노 가입 쿠폰 went through that day. And I still believe our relationship is amazing. But even then, when I ask her a simple question, “What was good today?” nothing comes out of her. According to her, her days are always good and nothing bothers her at school. And I know it’s not because 카지노 가입 쿠폰’s trying to hide something, or because 카지노 가입 쿠폰 doesn’t feel comfortable talking to me. I even have a blog post titled “15 Questions to Replace ‘How Was School Today?’” still open in one of the tabs on Safari, but I wish it works that simple. School can’t always be good, and it’s almost impossible to have zero friction among friends and classmates. I am so eager to learn how 카지노 가입 쿠폰 feels when things happen, and maybe help her navigate through it, but how can I start if 카지노 가입 쿠폰 doesn’t share the “things” that happen?
