Stories Galore

Our morning revolved entirely around stories beginning with a return visit to the Central Library downtown. Spencer was tickled by a story called Who Do You Love about pets and the animals and people who love them. Every time I read the page where an owl says, "I love you - Hoo, Hoo. Do you love me too?" Spencer would start giggling. He loves rhyming words these days.

Our book today in music class was Circus Caps for Sale, a story about a peddler who visits the circus while balancing caps on his head. Trouble ensues when a curious elephant takes a liking to his caps. Spencer, as usual, was intently focused on the story. As we were leaving, we chanced upon a group of dancers attending an ABT (American Ballet Theatre) workshop. It brought back memories of when I was young, dreaming of becoming a ballerina with ABT. I wonder what Spencer will dream of becoming.
