The Story Telling Chair

It seem so appropiate today to photograph and journal about the story telling chair. It was a bitter sweet day today. It was my last day of school and I may not be returning at the beginning of the new school year. I have been the school librarian for three year with students from PreK thru 8th grade. I will miss my students but I am getting use to giving wings. Because of declined enrollment the school may be closing soon and I am believing it is time for me to make some changes. It is just a matter of time library will be one of the classes cut. I have experience this in the previous school which lead me to this school.

Me and the story telling chair have been together for about nine years now. When I first became the school librarian I knew I needed a really cool chair to read my stories from. This chair has made the move with me from my old school to my new school. I have read a many of stories from this chair. Now it's time to leave my chair behind. It was a hard decision but the right decision. It needs to stay, I need to go. I know it will be happy in the library surrounded by books. It is its home. As for me I will begin yet another chapter in my life but will hold close to my heart many memories with the story telling chair...
