Library Cards

Even in the midst of all our packing and frantic preparing to leave busyness, we made time for one last "first" on Bowen. The kids and I went to the library and got them their own library cards. Sure, we could have gotten these first cards anywhere we live, but it was somehow very important to me that they have this special moment on Bowen. It was nothing earth shaking - the lovely library volunteer had me fill out the forms, the kids waited with minimal pushing and excitement, they received their cards and each signed them (oh, the signatures, the sweet, sweet signatures). We weren't able to take any cards out with them - too close to leaving - but those precious cards are already packed away in their wallet (Sterling) and special box (Siena).
