Long Story Short

If you know me personally then you have heard me say, “long story short”. It is never a short story, but I try. Someone asked to hear the story behind the blog name, and I am so happy to oblige.

 

We had left the library and on our way home we ran into my son’s classmate and his mom. We stopped to chat, and she took interest in what Grey was reading. She asked, “What did you borrow?” My son loudly proclaimed the title of the book: “MOON!!!” Later I was brainstorming some punny names for the blog, but this name fit my son best.

 

With that I dedicate this blog and our reading adventures to my son: The Boy Who Borrowed the Moon.

 

Questions for my readers: What time of day and day of the week do you prefer to go to the library?

One thought on “Long Story Short

  1. What a great story! I love your blog name’s simple but profound origin story. And I love how it feels like “reach for the stars” only somehow sweeter.

    We love the library any day of the week and ever since I got the girls their own library card my oldest has been begging to go to the library so she can use HER card to check out books. Lol!
