I LOVE the library !

I had the day off from both jobs today. NICE! It was sunny and I wanted to be outside. I decided to run some errands and just enjoy my free time!

I ended up at my local library. There is something about my library that I just love. Every time I walk up the steps I feel excited. As I walk through the doors, I look over at the tables and I immediately see myself as a middle schooler sitting there trying to do my homework or writing notes to my best friend. I love walking through the children's books section and rereading all those titles I enjoyed so much as a young adult.

Reading had always brought me such pleasure! My Mom always thought I would grow up to be a librarian. She, of course, did not tell me this until after I had chose a my degree in education! I am lucky, I can share my love of books everyday with the students I teach.

As I wandered around the library, I thought just how lucky I am to be able pick and choose whatever books I want! Reading is such a gift!
