I'm curious: did either of your parents read to you as a child?

My mother did, every night, and told me when I was older that I had the idea before I could actually do it myself, as she'd skip ahead to try to get to other chores, and I point unerringly at the "skipped" section and say "Mommy, you missed this part!"

Like you, I don't recall not knowing how to read. I've always read anything that didn't read me first, and a fair bit that did, and I know where I got the habit.
