My Very Own Mail

Yes, I am haunted, haunted by books. You see, I go out shopping for my precious nephew fully intending to buy him something other than books. And no matter what I do, I buy the child more books.

I have bought this poor child so many books, along with, of course, the hand-me-down-books from my children that he simply must have!

He just turned three at the end of May and once again I headed out to shop for him. I intended to go to Target and look at clothes or toys and then I realize there is a Michael’s in this shopping center and he has been enjoying arts and crafts recently. What a great idea — a care package of arts and crafts goodies! Yeah! So, off I go to Michael’s…

Well………did you know they sell children’s books at Michael’s? Yeah, me neither!

I wandered, I meandered, I perused….and wound up stuck on the books aisle!!!!! Man, oh man!

I am just destined to be this boy’s ‘Provider of Books’…hahaha!!

Well, I found some really great ones, though! Even a Wiggles one in there, as he is ‘The Wiggles Fan’ — I believe he’s the president of the North American chapter of their fan club!! Hahaha!

I just love books, that is all I can say. I love books, they love me, and I love my nieces and nephews….and if I stock their bookshelves – really – how much of a crime is that?

GO READ A BOOK!
