22 // Read Tons of Books Every Year with THESE Tips || READING FOR BUSY MOMS

When a woman transitions to motherhood, often many of her hobbies and favorite things fall by the wayside, at least for a time, while she adjusts to the demands of having a baby dependent on her for everything.  Over time, we can usually add a few things back in, but often things like reading never make it back as we continue to have kids and other things take up our time.  As a former English teacher, reading is incredibly important to me, and I think we would all agree that reading is something we want our kids to love and to do often for life, but that means we should be modeling it, too!  Plus, reading is a wonderful way to learn, to escape reality for a while (what mom wouldn't love that here and there?!?), to relax, and just to have fun in a very cheap and easy way!  But, we still have to figure out how to fit it in.  In today's episode, I asked my Gluestick Community on Instagram, Facebook, and Youtube for advice from real busy moms about how they fit in reading, where they find affordable (or free) books, and any other tips they have for reading as a mom.  They came through with AMAZING tips that I'm sharing in this episode along with my own!  You will leave after listening to this episode with an idea of how to fit reading into your day fairly easily and will hopefully be inspired to pick up a book and jump in!
