THE FAMILY LIBRARY

Started a new blog to deconstruct the family library for love letters to our son.  Not sure he'll appreciate it yet, since the concept begins, "Dear Son, We are spending your inheritance on books.  We are at about 7,000 volumes now ..."  But it amuses his parents...

Of course, there are hidden conceptual layers -- like, we need a way to keep track of the books mushrooming throughout the house.  Like the hubby doesn't know what I acquire and vice versa.  Like, I want to continue teaching the value of books to our son.  Et al.  To wit:

THE CHATELAINE'S FAMILY LIBRARY
