Oliver's first library card

Oliver is nearing his 5th birthday so we headed off to the library to get his very own card. We made a big deal out of it and the librarian who took care of us fell in step, making the whole experience very memorable.
Oliver had to complete two things to be able to get his own card.
1. He had to be able to write his first and last name (check)
2. He had to be able to write it in the tiny box on the back of the card. (That took some practice but he eventually nailed it).
His first books checked out included the Caldecott and Newbery winners for 2012 (ok, maybe I had a little to do with the selection:)).
After losing several items over the years, we now have a dedicated bookshelf and its been a lifesaver.
