Technology's seeped into every nook and cranny of our lives, hasn't it. Truth be told, most of us would agree that it hasn't done our closest relationships any favors.
Here's how one couple has redeemed their screen time, melding technology with some good reads ... and a cozy intimacy.
Janet writes ~
I enjoyed your recent blog about books you are reading and was wondering if you and Tim ever read books together. My husband and I enjoy reading books on his Kindle ... he reads his Kindle while it reads out loud and I follow along on my Ipad.
Does that make sense?
Anyway we are always looking for books we would both enjoy and I didn't know if reading was something that you and Tim did together or not.
Linda responds ~
I love how you read with each other! Your story's a perfect example of how technology can bring a couple together. I love this.
We don't do alot of reading together, although recent days have found us side by side in our chairs at the fireplace, each of us with our nose in some kind of reading material.
It's quiet and cozy and kind of intimate.
Anyway, if you'd share some of the books you've read together, I'd be most interested ... and would love sharing your list, too!
