Adventures at the Library

Today we took Miss Pear to the library. Not exactly a banner day, or rare event. Except for one thing. We left the librarians somewhat flabbergasted.

We went looking for a book for Miss Pear on a specific subject.

The cardiovascular system.

Or, to quote Miss Pear, a book on veins.

This past week Miss Pear noticed the veins on her wrists, and it kind of snow balled from there. So we went to get her a book to help her and to feed her curiosity. Apparently at the ripe age of 3 and 3/4 years old you are not supposed to notice these things, and there are no books at her age. So we left with books for 3-5th graders. You know what the scary thing is? She understands them just fine.

Do you think the librarians will remember us next time we are there?

In other news the lady at the education store thought we were nuts too, but we did find a small poster that now graces the wall on the hall way to the garage. It is for grades 3-5 too. Miss Pear loves it and has been explaining it to her little sister. Baby appears to be exceedingly interested as well. (Never mind that Baby is exceedingly interested in everything...)

Ah, a budding doctor?! That's what is nice about homeschooling; you can teach their interests rather than confining them to a grade level.
