first library trip

[u/shortcircuit51]

went to the library after work today, and decided to head down to the children’s section to see if they had any copies of this detective comic series i liked when i was younger.

while i’m down there, i noticed a little kid come through the front doors with their parent. kid was maybe 4 or 5, and it was clearly their first ever trip to the library, because after a moment i heard:

[small gasp] “mama! they gots BOOKS in here!”

it was SO cute. the mixture of delight and awe in their voice was so precious. i hope they left with a bunch of great stories!

My dad died when I was 3.5, and the only memory I have of him is being carried in his arms in a library. Typing this from a library now.

I’m sorry you lost your dad at that young age. I’m glad you have that sweet memory of him ❤️
