Library

It's official Bug is now a library card holder. She was so excited to have her own card. Except, I think she was a little confused with what you actually do with. We do go to the library quite often. When we went to go pick out her books last night she started just grabbing all kinds of books off the shelf without really looking at them. She had Spiderman, football and subjects that I know she would not have much interest in. When I asked her what she was doing, she informed me that she is,
"buying them with her new credit card." I had to explain to her that it was not a credit card that we are still just borrowing the books from the library. Also, that even if we have a credit card we just don't buy everything. I thought she understood the concept of not buying things if you don't have the money. I guess we will have to revisit that subject again.
She informed several people in the library that she has a card now and was very proud to hand the Librarian her card when we checked out. She wanted to hold her card all the way home so she could show daddy it. When we got home she was so excited that she jumped out of the van and fell down and bruised and scraped up her knees really bad. I had to carry her in. She still wanted to share her excitement in all of the tears and show daddy that her card has her first, middle and last name on it. Then when we were bandaging all her scrapes she made me read every word on the card. I don't think the library needs to worry about any late or missing books with Bug. She informed me of how important it is to take care of and to be responsible for her books. She also told me to, "be very careful not to lose her card. That she doesn't want someone to take it."
I just had to share that story it was to cute.
