Thankful Thursday

 

Hi everyone! We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.  I am thankful that I got to read Emmy’s book at The Great One’s school. It was nice to meet her class and I recognized many from basketball and the playground. I am also thankful for my niece ( today is her 35th birthday). She has a great job, wonderful husband and is an amazing mom to her 3 kids. I am very proud of her.

We are also joining Angel Sammy’s Poetry Day.  And here is the photo prompt provided:

Thought it would be quicker to go my way.
On a boat, no traffic to get stuck.

  4. Angel Emmy skunked everyone by showing them she was a beautiful cat. It’s nice that she ended up inside the pages of a book and their children are reading the book.

  9. Belated Birthday Greetings to your niece!
    What fun to be able to read a book you wrote to youngsters! Maybe they will love kitties of their own when they grow up.

    Your poem is great! Traffic jams or in this case a barge lookup are the pits…
