Budding Bookworms

This week my daughters' school is having a book fair. I remember loving book fairs when I was little. And libraries. And bookstores. Yep, I am most definitely a bookworm and I am hoping that my daughters are going to turn into bookworms, too. Reading is a great way to expand our minds and pass the time.

Yesterday I wasn't prepared for the book fair because they only accept cash. (I am a debit card kind of person so I never have cash on me.) One of my daughters found a Barbie book that she so desperately wanted, but since we couldn't buy it right then and there, we had to leave with a very perturbed Peanut. I promised her today that I would allow her to get one book and she was jazzed about the idea of selecting her precious Barbie book.

However this morning when we scanned the books before entering her classroom, I noticed this book was completely sold out. Apparently every other little girl wanted the book, too. I thought to myself, no problem, we can get another book and then later on I can purchase it online or at a local bookstore. Except when I went to search for it online it is exclusively sold through the book fair company.Great...
