In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Summer Reading Contest Post #1

Filed under: Contest — Rachel at 7:50 pm on Saturday, July 24, 2010

Ok, guys. To all of you who have left a comment entering this contest…you rock my world. You are the reason I don’t feel like the nerdy kid on the kickball field. Thanks for joining in. To those who haven’t yet “entered” my contest, just leave a comment saying you’re in.

To start this thing off, simply leave a comment saying what book you are reading first. (If you’ve already finished a book since entering the contest, give me your title, your total, and what your’e reading now in the comments.) Once a week, I will have a reading contest post, and everyone can update in the comments about your progress.

Happy reading, everyone!
