It's that time of year again - everyone is doing their planning for next school year, ordering books and curriculum and running out of bookshelf space. Our little home school here at Pinewood Castle is no different. Because the shelves were getting crammed and too many little things are now within the baby's reach I am sure you can understand my appreciation for another tall bookshelf (our 4th) in our little learning room.
My dear husband put other extra expenses on hold, took the seats out of the van and drove to IKEA on his lunch hour for another Billy bookcase. And get this - he even vacuumed the van before putting the seats back in, God bless him!
Grateful as I am for the new addition, I did give serious consideration to re-purposing the shelf as a baby play pen -
But my little daddy's boy was brimming with excitement over the prospect of helping daddy build the new bookshelf. He made my husband promise not to put it together without him. So I let the guys have at the assembly project and now my classroom is good to go - for at least another year!
