Joel's BIG NEWS

I am OFFICIALLY a BIG BOY!

Only a Big Boy has a library card.

You have to be 4 years old to get a library card.
Today I am 4 years old.
So Daddy and I took a HOT ride to the city to get me my own card.

We were in such a huge hurry that we forgot to take back the fininshed books. Oh well, we'll get them back Sunday.

I am SO EXCITED.

Look! I picked out my 10 books ALL BY MYSELF!

Isn't that the MOST EXCITING NEWS!

And I can read "City 123" all by myself! I'm so excited to be able to read with my new card.


(Mom's Note: City 123 is just numbers and counting - he just has to know his numbers to "read" it.)
