Books

Yesterday was quiet fun. We went to story time at the library. Young Yoastie 1 (CS) loves it. She knows all the actions to the songs and stories and has to be at the front to dance along. CS is normally very shy but she loves showing off that she can dance. She has such a serious face when there is a new rhyme she doesn't know yet. Young Yoastie 2 (CE) is not so bothered. There is a big wooden train in the library and she would rather climb in that than dance along.
At the end of the 30 min you get a sticker for your "book crawl" record (local initiative to get children to read more books). CS very nicely asked if CE may have a sticker too. CE was on the boiler (of the train) and wasn't getting off. The lady from the library looked a little amused and gave her the sticker. Later she found me and said it was lovely to meet children with good manners but maybe CS needed to learn the difference between how to address gentlemen and ladies. CS had said:"Please sir, may I have a sticker for my little sister."
