Yesterday:
I was sitting at my desk…one of my Mother Goose on the Loose storytime regulars came in with her mom and older brother…and I overheard her say:
“Abby’s home! Abby’s here! Abby’s home!!!”
I guess I do kinda live at the library. And I guess Jim is right when he says I’m like a rock star to the little kids. Because Janey kept up that refrain, “Abby’s home! Abby’s here! Abby’s home!” for the whole half hour that her family was at the library. Her mom and I thought it was pretty funny, and pretty cute.
That’s so cool! Today when I walked into the college library, late in the day, I came upon two students intently working on a project. They looked up and then looked at each other in surprise, then back at me. “We were just saying: wouldn’t it be cool if Jean walked into the library right now?”
Karma, sister, Karma.
