In training

Lyla has turned to the dark side of reading and shunned good, hearty books for glossy, advertisement-filled magazines.

Or has she? We're pretty sure she's just training for her black belt in toddler dexterity by finger-thumbing through magazines page by page. Her eight-page books aren't long enough, and our adult books don't have enough pictures. Magazines are perfect.

Turn. Turn. Turn.

"Hey, Lyla."

Turn. Turn.

"Lyla?"

Turn. Turn. Turn. Turn.

"Lyla, say cheese."



Turn. Turn. Turn. Turn. Turn.
