My Mom Just Bought My First Book at Barnes & Noble

By February 7, 2019August 21st, 2019No Comments

My mom went to Barnes & Noble to buy my book, and it was my favorite thing about the release day for Love Made.

She used to bring me and my sister here for story time and crafts on Saturdays. She would always let me get a croissant and hot chocolate. That’s why I sometimes tear up when I walk into Barnes & Noble with my daughter. And now I get to take up a little shelf space among the books I loved browsing as a child.

Love you, Mom. Thanks for showing me the wonderful world of books.
