Last month, Judy W from Growing Students Who Love To Learn was having a bookshelf contest. She wanted people to send pictures of their bookshelves in, for a chance to win a packet of books.
I sent in this picture of one of our bookshelves in the living room. My Dad built me this bookshelf, and then he and Steve built me a wider version, as well. This particular bookshelf holds my favorite parenting books, homeschool support books, some old Hardy Boys books, and many more books (including mine and Steve's old yearbooks on the bottom shelf).
As you can see, it's double-shelved on every single shelf except the top one. But even on the top shelf, I have books laying across the top of the other books. You can't see the bottom shelf in this picture because a wooden doll house sits in front of it and blocks the view.
Anyway, to get to the point, I won! I don't know which books I won, but I can't wait to receive them and try to squeeze them onto one of our seven overstuffed bookshelves! (they aren't all as big as this one)
Trusting in Him,
April
