Conditioning for Dorm Study

One of my most important goals each day is to have Lily read to me for at least 20 minutes a day, we usually do a book or two after lunch and then always before bed. I truly think that Lily will be able to study at college in her dorm room with the door open, friends in and out, music playing loudly and while she chats on the phone. Why will she be able to do this? Because most of the time when Lily is reading to me, Lacy is letting us know her opinion on the book, Harper is trying to claw her way onto my lap and Haley is pulling hair or trying to rip the book out of our hand. And yes, we strive to do our reading during quiet moments but more often than not, it's a family affair.
