Hard to Say Goodbye

source

Almost every Friday, I tutor my second grade kiddo. When I say tutor, I mean we hang out at the library reading and browsing books together. Her love of reading surprises me each time. It makes my heart smile when she rushes in and asks for books. I also love looking on the bookshelves with her. Often, I have a few fingers in between books to hold her spot while I'm using my other hand to pull out books. I found this lovely picture book Saying Goodbye to Lulu. It talks about the lost of a beloved family member and learning how to move on. I loved how it emphasized the importance of remembering the fuzzy little one and necessity to move on. A beautiful story for one of the hardest times in anyone's life, a wee one or an adult.
