Today was my second day volunteering at the local library. It really is so inspiring to see the children run through the door with excitement and not even start towards the computers but scatter to the shelves of wordly knowledge. I don't honestly remember children being so eager to read when I was younger. I recall thinking of the library as something similiar to a ghost town. Now I am proviledged to say that the reading bug has caught quite a few of our youngsters.
So this past tuesday as well as earlier today I was allowed to be included in the experience of encouraging good reading habits in children. Their smiles were completely intoxicating and I truly cannot wait until the next time I get to have with them. This Wednesday and Thursday should prove interesting also as the Morrow Branch will offer a two-day celebration of America's birthday that will be open to many children of all ages.
