It's been a busy week and I'm too tired to post anything meaninful tonight. Here are some pages I did of our trip to Spring Folley last weekend. The third page is a picture of the girls leaving Spring Folley. The poem reads,
"Blessed be innocence, smiles from the heart,
Small dimpled fingers that take things apart,
Noses that wrinkle at spinach and such,
Eyes filled with wonder for they see so much.
Blessed be questions with no easy answers,
Bubble-bath swimmers and mud-puddle dancers,
Climbers and diggers and builders and bakers,
Dreamers and gigglers and up-at-dawn wakers.
Hearts that are gentle, wills that are strong,
Minds learning left from right and right from wrong
Blessed be hugs that wrap around your knees,
Sweet angel voices that sigh "Once more, Please?"
Blessed be, "Read me a story" and then,
Blessed be each whispered, "Bless me...Amen."
Blessed be sleepy eyes, each little yawn...
Blessed be childhood before it is gone."
I'll try to write again soon, but life is busy with a capital B right now. Hopefully I'll be back soon. Anybody want to buy a literacy bag business? I'm about ready to sell! There is too much to do and no time to do it all! The poem above speaks of the very reason I need a break from this job!
