How becoming a special needs mom has changed my views on parenting. 

What's working, what didn't happen this year, and my thoughts for the next year (already). 

I've written about deliberate practice, and read about it in several other titles through the years, but now I finally read the book that clearly outlines what deliberate practice actually is. While the chapter on applying DP to business didn't interest me, I enjoyed the deeper look into the topic and he helped me develop a better understanding of how the principles can apply to my own life, and where I've wrongly applied the term. 

Teddy is reading a lot about WWII lately, but he wanted to switch it up, and this book seemed to fit the bill. He'd been disappointed in other unofficial Minecraft fan fiction, but when I saw this at the library, I noticed it was endorsed by Mojang and written by the author who penned 'World War Z' which gave me some hope that it wouldn't disappoint him so much. Thankfully I was right. It has an engaging story, good character development, and Teddy loves the action.  Would I call it literature? Probably not, but it's a clear step above most of the other Minecraft fiction books we've found.
