One of the results of a summer with me busy running the older three all over town was that Jake was often left wishing he could go somewhere too, but I was often out of time and energy to make that happen. Some days, that was just the reality, and life is never going to be even: the older three never had me all to themselves as little kids like Jake did, as one example.
But, I did decide I needed to occasionally make the effort to find something fun for me and Jake to do. So I turned to my old standby-the library programs. And they did not disappoint! One evening Jake and I got to take Lovey to the library and have story time and crafts with him. Then, we went home, but Lovey got to spend the night at the library! And when we went to pick Lovey up the next day, he came home with a little photo album of all the fun things he did overnight at the library with all this new stuffed animal friends. So cute. And Jake loved it. Thanks for the win, library!

That is one amazing library! They have been such a valuable resource for you for a long time! sooo good!
Oh! That's adorable! Fun all around! Yes, younger kids miss out on some things but get more of others...older parents have more money to spend for one thing!
