Baby's library

Day 16-19



Why is it that no matter how many books you provide for a new baby, the only ones they like are the ones that are on a shelf, placed neatly, put away, "company-ready" ???

I have board books galore for baby and yet, the only ones he pulls off the shelf are the bible, the Time magazine, the teen-aged novels and stories!!! And it's not like he pulls just one off the shelf, he pulls them ALL off the shelf and then brings me one, you know, to read to him. I thought, "Oh...OK. I will instill in my young child a love of literature. I shall read to him of the adventures of Dragonhome."

Before I got to the first page of the story, he was off my lap running to the book pile to pick up another book. Do I have a future LIBRARIAN on my hands?
