First Library Card

The first thing Peter told me yesterday after waking up (extra early compared to his normal wake up time!!) was that now that he's 6, he can have his own library card.  A few months ago, he had asked the library assistant how old you had to be to get your own card.  He was delighted when the answer was 6.  He had been counting down the days.  Then he kind of forgot about it, I think.  Until yesterday.  Then he remembered, and he just couldn't contain his excitement.  

Peter is now the owner of a brand new library card.  He can check out 15 items at a time without my help, and he made sure to tell me that I really don't have to help him now.  I think he's growing up. :)
