(I used to live in Iowa and feel like that is my home state regardless of where I was born and where I now live.)

Feeling a kinship with others gives us emotional ties and a relation that goes beyond just being human beings together on the planet Earth.

I was just reading her blogspot and felt the connection of her with the children that gather to listen to her read. Close your eyes and remember your mom or dad or grandmother or another relative reading to you, you sitting there all warm on their lap and your eyes bright with the pictures and your mind and ears hearing the word cadence of their voice. You not only heard their voice but felt it in your body through that contact.

Wonderful times for me as a listener when a child and as a reader when a father with one of my children and now grandchildren on my lap and the love and connection we feel. Beautiful and wonderful.

Read to your lovely children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc. It will make theirs and your day.
