Chapter Seven: Trip to the Library
It was September 10th Wednesday, Mama did school with as always. And it was so easy because they had just started on September 1st. Charlotte was so cute when she gurgled and laughed, and even when she cried. She was the cutest little one in their family. She loved to such on toys, or anything she could such on, like most all babies. Rosie always wanted to hold her standing up, but of course she was too young. She cried often when she was hungry or when she wanted something, and if someone scolded her a little bit. They all loved her very much, and could not wait until she could walk or talk. They thought it would be adorable if she id though, at such a young age.
“When will I ever be done with my school!” moaned Sarah. She hated school very much and wish did not have to it ever. But she did so she tried her best to go through it, she even cried a little bit. So Mama came over and rubbed her back trying to calm her, and said: “What is it honey? If you just tell me I bet I can help you.” She said in her very sweet voice.
“Okay,” Sarah said wiping her tears. “School is just so hard, I don’t think I can do it!”
“Oh, of course you can, here what is bothering you?”
Sarah looked down at her page of work and pointed at the problems. Just when Mama began to help her, Charlotte burst out and said in her baby voice: “Mama!”
“Did you hear that? She said her first word! She said “Mama”! Mama cried, laughing.
Oh, yes Mama! We did! That was so cute!” cried Evelyn.
“Yeah!” Yeah!” voices said. They all cheered, with smiles on their faces. They were so happy that their baby sister finally said her very first word. Charlotte gurgled and laughed, she loved everyone giving so much attention.
“Isn’t it so wonderful, Sarah? She was so adorable saying that little word “Mama”.
Oh, yes!” replied Sarah.
Are you done with school yet, Sarah asked Mama. Sarah shook her head.”Okay then, everyone we’re going to the library, get ready. If you are not done with your school yet, than you can do it there.” Mama announced.
They were all happy that they were going to the library, because there were so many books at the library. And it was much more fun to do work at the library than home. So they all put their shoes on and hoped in the car. They drove past the country fields, and the pretty houses, until they reached the library.
“We are here!” said Rosie and they drove into the parking lot. Everyone piled out of the car, and walked into the library.
It was a quite library filled with shelves of books, and people reading them. The librarians were so nice. They helped Rosie sharpen a pencil, and adored the baby. Sarah quickly tried to finish her schoolwork, then looked for books and sat down and read them. There was a librarian they knew there. “Hello Elizabeth! It is so nice to see you again!” cried Mama. “Hello!” said the librarian quickly. Mama gave her a large grin.
“What a cute baby you have! What is her name?” said the librarian.
“Charlotte.” answered Mama.
“What a beautiful name!” exclaimed the librarian.
“Thank you.” replied Mama. Mama then turned to look at Evelyn who was doing her school, and felt sorry for her. So she told her she could take a break and pick out some books. Evelyn was glad when she heard this, and hurriedly stopped her work, said thank you to Mama and disappeared into the long shelves of the books. Mama laughed, seeing the site of her daughter stopping so quickly.
Samuel looked at Mama and asked her if he could look for a book he needed for school. And of course Mama said yes.
When everyone, and herself got everything they needed, and Mama said by and thank you to the librarian they went home. They all walked out of the library, and into the van.
They drove past the houses and fields, until they reached their own home.
Samuel and Evelyn were still not done with their school but they finished it at the end of the day.
