The big girls finally got bunk beds, which means there is now enough space in the Big Girl Room for Renee to move in. She has been just dying to be one of the Big Girls. Over the past week, we moved the rest of her stuff in to the Big Girl Room, which left us with an entirely empty room. After much deliberation, it was decided that this room should become the Library.
And here it is. A family of bibliophiles such as ourselves will get a lot of use out of this space. My children are the only ones I've ever known to actually
wear out books through normal use. I can think of several favorite titles we that are on our third our fourth copies of. The last several mornings, Matt and I have woken up to find all of the children up here digging through books and fighting over the three chairs in there.
With only one bookshelf, we have lots of piles of books on the floor and in baskets. It seems we have been able to acquire both books and children at a faster rate than we have been able to acquire the furniture necessary for either one.
