Story time at the library at Codman Square is one of Rachel and Linus’ Friday routines. Today Linus got to go with his Dad, Grandpop and Nana. Bella and her mother, Rebecca were there and some other little ones with parents and siblings, but Chris the librarian was not. He was on vacation. Rebecca ably stepped in to lead the songs but chose not to read a story. Instead we all just explored the wonderful offerings of the public library. It was a time to reflect on a particular encounter in a library decades ago that led to this experience!
