Do you have a hard time boxing books up at the end of the school year? I was putting this past year's history curriculum, among other things, in a box today and typing a label for the outside so I could easily determine the contents of the box once it was in "storage." My 14yods was concerned that he wouldn't be able to look at the books again, that the box wouldn't be unpacked.
He still keeps on the shelf in his room some of his early Sonlight books, like Usborne's World Geography and Time Traveler. Now he's having trouble letting me box up Pyramid and City (both by Maccaulay).
Oh, how I long for a big house with lots of built in bookshelves. I think back to the scene in "Beauty and the Beast" where Beast has Belle close her eyes, then takes her into the library, flings open the drapes, and tells her, "Now." Oh what a thrill runs through my body at that scene! Oh to have so many shelves that nothing would ever have to be boxed up!
Blessings,
Barb
