When Rose was born, she proved herself to be the "communicator" in the family unit very quickly, speaking in complete sentences with perfect wording. Well – she was NOT going to be left out of the reading crowd! This presented a problem for me because, non having a lap big enough for three children, this meant that Rachael, the oldest, had to stand past the chair at story fourth dimension.
