Halfway through the past year, I decided to begin keeping a reading list. I think it gave me a small sense of accomplishment, and it satiated my need to feel like an intelligent woman in the midst of breastfeeding, the unending cycle of changing and washing diapers, making baby food, and trying to be intentional about how I play with my infant child.
That said, I think I'll continue the practice in 2012.
