Hallmark's recordable books are just PERFECT for military families! A friend gave one to us shortly before Scott left; what an awesome gift! So that he could still read a story before bed, Scott recorded himself reading the book to the kids, and they love it! In fact, one night, when I tucked the older child thing into bed, I forgot about her "Daddy book." After I went downstairs, I heard her in her bedroom reading it herself. She also says she wants Daddy to make her a new book for Christmas this year. Awwww... And it's good for the baby to hear Daddy's voice and to hear us talking about him when we read.Highly recommend these books to any military family with small children!! I love that Scott can still be a part of the bedtime routine, even when he's on the other side of the world.

This pulls at my heart strings, I am sorry that Scott is deployed again. I know how difficult it is and I am sure that this deployment has brought a whole new realm of challenges. Especially, with Katherine being older this time. If you ever need anythimg, I am just a phone call away.
I have not heard of these! Would have loved to have one during Eric's deployments.
