Library Trip

We made our way to the library as a family + grandma & grandpa. We scattered as each had an idea of what he'd like to find. I checked out The Glass Castle. I've seen it recommended on more than one blog while surfing. I never would have picked it up otherwise. It's a memoir relating a girl's childhood with her non-traditional, eccentric, and basically homeless parents. Makes me very grateful for the parents I had. Makes me want to be a better parent.




After our visit, Jessica tucked her book under her arm and marched out toward the car.

I called out to her and asked her to turn and show me which book she choose. She pretended not to hear me. "Jessica, show Mommy which book you got at the library." And she gave me this pose.

"Jessica, turn so I can see you." I'm not kidding when I say it's nearly impossible to photograph her looking toward the camera.

(Yes, she is facing backwards with her book on her bottom. She turned her head to the side).
