Here we are looking for Springtime and our Library Igloo is finished. There's nothing that says you have to have cold weather to have an igloo.
The good thing about this igloo is that when the warm sunshine makes flowers bloom and the weeping willow green up, our igloo will still be standing in the Children's
Library.
Last week Holly from Bookmobile helped Norma, the Children's Librarian, take the whole thing apart. Remember from the last blog about it, I said it was leaning in toward its middle? And it was being taped with tons of duct tape. Well, Holly and Norma tore the whole thing down. Then over the weekend, Norma's son, Reed, helped her hot-gun glue it back together. And you know what? It's standing just perfect...just like a real igloo should stand.
There's still one thing to do, however. Norma wants to build the tunnel-entrance. She still has plenty of milk jugs to do that with, too.
But for now, it's such a pleasure to see the little children walk up to it, peek inside, and then grin like crazy when they walk in and sit down. The first thing they do is stare up at the three clear milk jugs in the very top of the ceiling. It's like a sky-light. Norma thought maybe she should put a flag outside on the top. Monique even suggested it should have a colorful light shining out the clear top. But that would be a different plan for a different day.
Anyhow, the next time you're in the library, please stop by and look at our "permanent" igloo in the Children's Library.
And thanks to all of you who donated to this project, for without you the igloo could not have been built.
By the way, Norma said she really doesn't need any more milk bottles, but thanks much.
