I must say that I love the Kindle I recently received for my birthday. It fits right into my purse and I have it wherever I go and find myself waiting. Doctor's offices, parking lots, etc. There's always something to read. I've always been a big fan of libraries, so I never actually thought I would enjoy something that would require you to pay to read books. I can honestly say you can find many things to read on a Kindle without paying anything.
I found a page on FaceBook (Free Ebooks) that lists free books every day. I already have over 200. These are books that are being promoted - like the first book in a series or an author's first publication. I am also rereading some of the classics that I haven't looked at in years. These are free on the Kindle as well.
I tried the Kindle app on my IPad, but the IPad is a lot heavier to hold while I'm reading. I prefer the Kindle itself.
I'd love to hear suggestions about books to add to my Kindle.
Thoughts from my ordinary life. A mom of three, military wife, parent of teenagers, parent of Autistic child.

Hello!
This is my first attempt at a blog so I thought I should introduce myself. I am a 35 year old wife and mother. I have been married for 16 years to a wonderful man I met when I was 17 years old. My hubby has been in the military for 18 years. He is currently (once again) living away from us for year in order to serve his country.
We have three children. Two are teenagers in high school and our youngest is in the second grade. Our youngest son has Autism. He currently receives OT and ABA outside of school and receives SLT, OT, and special education in an inclusion program at his school. He has previously been a part of several social skills groups. We're seeing a lot of improvement in him.
I currently attend college through the University of Maryland University College. I should graduate in May 2010. This is the first time I have been a Stay At Home Mom and never realized just how much work that actually entails! I live to read and knit! I plant a small vegetable garden every spring and can tomatoes every year.
We live just south of Washington DC in Maryland. We love to visit the museums and National Parks in our area. I will post again soon with great ideas for things to do in the city.
It's nice to meet you!
