Questions/Comments/Concerns :  *A young toddler came into the library with her mother today.  Her mom told Anastasia and me how disappointed the toddler was that we didn't sing the "Here are my glasses" song in storytime this week.  The mother said that she couldn't always remember the words so she couldn't sing it with her daughter at home.  Anastasia and I decided to do an impromptu song together with the whole family, then Anastasia told the mom the name of the song so she could find it on YouTube and sing it at home.  It was a lovely little moment!
