Thankful Thursday

60 comments

Hi everyone! We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

I am thankful that I got to read Emmy’s book at my local library and the library in the next town over. There were only 4 kids at one and 6 at another, but the ones that were there had fun. I read the book and gave out a coloring sheet. Plus we made nip knots for them to take home to their kitties. I was very nervous, but it was a lot of fun.

And here is my poem for Sammy’s Poetry Day based on this photo prompt:

Maybe I shouldn’t have put the bowl on my head.
Boy, spaghetti sure does spread.
Maybe next time give me a spoon,
I just turned one in June.

Here are the Friendly Fill-Ins for tomorrow. I came up with the first two and our co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with second two.

  4. HAHAHA! That’s a great poem……a spoon might have been just as messy – and could have been used like a slingshot! Tee Hee YAY for the book reading at the library – I know those kids had a ball making nip knots for their kitties. It’s a GREAT idea to visit libraries because kids love to be read to.

    Hugs, Teddy
