one more study

This one won't help you loose weight or adjust your eating habits but I do like the results.  It turns out, based on a study of bunches of parents and toddlers, that reading to your children at bedtime (a time-honored tradition) is better for them if you read from a paper book instead of a tablet or other electronic devise.  It turns out that children lsiten more carefully and stay focused much better if they are being read to from a book.  They also fall asleep faster.  That seems contradictory but it is a good thing.  I really like the results of this study.  It pleases me to know that I did things right with my children.  I know, I know, I really didn't have any other option.  No, I'm not old enough to have been reading to them from stone tablets!
Although I do remember my son, at the age of four, asking me quite seriously if there were dinosaurs around when I was a little girl
