Book abundance
Often, my elementary school discards books that are not being checked out by the children
Staff members are welcome to any of those books
I love going through books
and I picked up some
that I thought someone in my family might like
Over time
I collected a big box full
We spread them out
all over the living room floor
Every kiddo got to skim, ponder and pick
"Take Home" books for their summer fun
Delicious anticipation . . . . . a lap full good reading!
cousin buddies
checking out their choices
sometimes reading aloud
on the stairway
She was so pleased to have her own stack of books
While waiting for her mommy to arrive
she carried her books around
in a plastic grocery sack
til the bottom ripped out
Oh!
A look of distress on her face
No problem
She seemed relieved to know she could have another bag to keep her books safe
What a fun busy crazy day
I love my grandchildren
Love all your cousin fun!
ReplyDeleteKatelyn was so funny...
ReplyDeleteKate-"I'm getting SOOO tired of holding these books!"
Grandma-"Well, go set them down on the table like I asked you to, three times."
Kate- "Three times?!"
Or something like that. :)
