Jacie-isms

Walking to the library recently, Jacie held the book in front of her, reading as she crossed the parking lot -- evidently trying to squeeze the last few moments out of an oft-read book that we were about to return.

Sighing melodramatically, she stated equally dramatically, " Mommy, I'm really, really sad to return these books.  But I'm so excited to get new ones!"

And that, so eloquently stated, is the heartfelt dilemma of every book lover.  I smiled in true commiseration at her comment, heart overwhelmed yet again at the very kindred spirit of my book-lovin' girl!
