Question/Confession Day

Sometimes life gets busy. Sometimes being a mom is hard and you're doing all you can just to make it through the day... the week... the month. Whatever the case may be.

Sometimes books are a sanity saver for me. But there are also days (even weeks) around here when reading falls by the wayside a bit. I don't know that we ever have days that we don't read any books, because stories are part of our bedtime routine. But there are days when the bedtime story is the only story my child hears that day. I feel terrible when that happens.

So there's my confession.

My question to you is, how often do you have days like the one I just described? AND How much per day (approx.) do you aim to read with your child?
