The Library

When my kids were very young, I started taking them to the library. They loved wandering up and down the aisles looking at all of the books, and bringing home their quota. I allowed each of them to bring home 10 books because that seemed the easiest way for me to keep track of all of them when they were younger. Whenever I would tell them we would be going to the library, their eyes would light up. It was always something they looked forward to. We still enjoy going to the library. I took my youngest daughter yesterday, and she brought home a bag literally filled to the brim with books. I personally always head for the cookbook shelves. I find so much enjoyment looking at and reading cookbooks. There is such a huge variety of cookbooks there that I always find something new to bring home. Another advantage is that you don't have to spend a lot of money on a cookbook that you may only make one or two recipes out of. So if you are wanting to get some new recipes, or just try some different types of foods, check out the cookbook section at your library. You will be amazed at the variety they have to offer.

You have instilled in me a lifelong love of books by allowing me to go to the library and check out a big stack of books. The hardest part about going to the library was when we would get back home. I would usually still have school left and I had to finish it before I could read any of my new books. Talk about motivation! I still love going to the library and checking out a big stack of books. In fact, I am in the library right now! I love You,
Love,
