You know you have a reader in the house...

When everything remotely flat is getting used as a bookmark. DH and I were looking for a coupon the other day and Becca said, "Oh, I used it as a bookmark..." I had two small envelopes sitting on a shelf by the door, waiting to be mailed. I discovered one in a nearby book, being used as a bookmark. And I was just putting away some of Sylvia's BOB books from this morning's reading (she read 5-8 of the first set) when I noticed one missing. Where was it? You guessed... being used as a bookmark.

And it doesn't do any good to have bookmarks either. Any other reading families can attest - those things disappear. I cut a whole stack of bookmarks out of cardstock a few months ago and there's no trace of them now. I use clothing tags, yarn tags, and perfume sample cards (the real cardboard ones that come with a mini-vial).
