NAFCU's Weekend Reading Pile
Compiled by Anthony Demangone, Powered by NAFCU
Kate and Briggs turn 10 this weekend. Somehow, in a blink of an eye, my dynamic duo went from being little, babbling babies to awesome kids. As my Dad said, the days go by slowly, but the years are swift.
Now, on to this week's reading pile!
