Library time

I wish my kids loved to go to the library to check out books because they love to read.

No.

They love the water feature and it's the only reason I can actually get them to go.

I just want them to learn to love to read.

If I keep trying right?

I remember going to the library maybe twice growing up. I still don't know how to locate and find a book that I am actually looking for. But I did wish my mom would've taken me more often. So I am trying to be that mom.

We had a good time in the water however. That is until Tallie threw one of the big river rocks right at Lexi's head. Then it was time to go.
Tonight we cuddled in blankets and read our books outside on the couch in the backyard. I had their attention then. I even got the attention of neighbor kids and they joined us. Maybe that should be our new summer thing to do. Late night story time outside. The more the merrier. Maybe it could be a regular thing and a cool memory to look back on...it's a nice thought at least.
