Showered With Love
She loves her children more than life itself
Hugging them each day when they wake
Owning up to what it means to be a mom
Words of wisdom researched and imparted
Extra helpings of confidence builders
Resulting in children showered with love
…..
There you have it! This is my Six Sentence Story – which I put in the form of an acrostic poem – for this week. Check out the other stories and join in by going to this LINK
Little fellow found comfort with his thumb, if you tried to stop him, he would go “unh, unh, unh.”
Then one day we tried the sipping cup, he gave up his thumb, he was growing up.
He learned to walk when we would hold his hands; Daddy made him a board so he could stand.
Wherever he was he’d be by our side; And oh, how he loved to in his wagon ride.
Sipping water as we climbed the sky, ears a popping but he did not cry.
Little fellow always for the ride, no matter what he would rather laugh than cry.

Daughter with Easter Eggs 2018
Happy Easter and Welcome to Ten Things of Thankful or TTOT. Kristi keeps us going each week with reminders to always be thankful for all that we have. Without further delay, let’s get at it.
1. 2. 
I am grateful for the birds who sing when we are taking walks and for National Poetry Month. Most of you may know I am doing prompts on this blog on a daily basis and a poem dedicated to the prompts, as well. Some are joining in and I am so happy to see this. It is a lot of fun to come up with ideas.
3. Have fun! I created this in 2018 for day 8, but who’s worried about details 😉 Have funnnn!! I am grateful for fun. We tease a lot around here and that means you are loved.
4. I found a pattern for masks made with socks, so I made us all masks. Now, time to break them in.
5. Dear heart bought me a new monitor so I am now up to the modern ages with two screens. I believe this will make a difference. It hooked up well with no hitches. And for a non tech person, I got the screens so they operate correctly.
6. The virtual world has come to roost. With the use of technology such as zoom rooms it is possible to see other people and work on our craft. Tonight, I am doing a virtual open mic. How awesome!!
7. 8. Order – today I organized my office space due to number 5 and also straightened up my art supplies. Now I feel freed up to create again. Daughter and I did this video where we drew bunnies. That was a lot a fun.
9. We have TP – that is something which as Next Door members we share about on the message board. We want to let each other know about paper findings. It’s a real life scavenger hunt without mosquitos.
10. YOU! Come sit at the table, color some eggs and share your news!
Lisa dressed up for 1st teen dance.
This was a moment of my life
It had to happen to enjoy my first dance
It was at my Kentucky school
Student council raising money
Created a Valentine’s date match
Sweaty palms and pencil in hand
This one signed up for a date
All for the Valentine’s dance
Twelve years old seventh grade student
Unsure of how to prepare
In stepped my big sister
After dying her red dress
And sharing her white blouse
She carefully applied my makeup
An expert of creating beauty
Nervously excited to meet my date
Daddy dropped me at the school
Along came my selected date
At his side was his girlfriend
Nice to meet you and moved on
As my mind was some confused
I shook it off when
On came the music
And it took one song
As sure as it was Chubby Checker
I was sure to do The Twist
Guess who won the twist contest
That was my family tradition
It was a good night
And that’s how it’s done
When life changes moments
Make it a good time
Today I decided to do a combination of prompts. My own prompt Let’s Twist and that of Robert Lee Brewer’s Poetic Asides. What’s your poem of the day?
Still twisting at age 13
