unexpectedly cool profession

My mom is a librarian. Did I ever tell you that?
When I was little, I wanted to be one too.
After school, my siblings and I would walk to the local library and wait for my mom to get done with work.
My brother loved it because he could play the Arthur video games.
I loved it because I could read every single American Girl magazine without getting a subscription.
Alli loved it because she could play with all the hand puppets.

Now my mom works at an Elementary school as a librarian.
I used to come and help her a bunch when I still lived in Michigan.
A few friends have even come and helped mom in the library.
One time my friend Abby came with us.
It is really hard to concentrate on one task while working there.

I don't think we were actually helpful. ever.

For example, I'm sure Abby and I had a specific task that we needed to accomplish, but instead we ended up asking the janitor if we could use his space-pack vacuum for the afternoon.

So today I went and helped my mom at school for a bit.

I was supposed to do a few tasks, but in the course of the afternoon I found something wonderful...

A Librarian action figure.

So naturally we take tons of pictures with it.

Notice mom's glasses.

Librarians rock.
