Lilly and the library

I know this picture is sort of blurry, but you can see the pure joy pouring out of her.


We try to go to the library once a week. Most the time they have a special story time just for tots but last week because of the holidays there wasn't one, but we decided to go anyway. The library closest to our house has a speical room for little ones, filled with puzzles, stuffed animals, tables, chairs, and also computers. Usually I don't let Lilly on the computers, even though they are set up for little ones, but this past week I thought why not... lets give it a go. We spent over an hour at the library that day because Lilly was having such a great time. The computers are great because they are just her size and locked up so they can only play the games that are on the screen or they can have a book read to them. Lilly figured it all out, she figured out how to type and make pictures appear and how to hear the story in the head phones. I was so glad to see her so happy, but it was really difficult to convince her to leave and there were plenty of tears and foot stomping as we left. I suppose though all good things must come to an end, but there is always the next time. Hopefully she will learn that she will get to come back we aren't leaving the fun places forever.
