To my everlasting shame, I did not do my traditional Woodchuck Man* song last year on A.'s birthday. I seem to recall my brain just being fried and not being able to come up with anything.
I'm not doing much better this year, as I only have one verse. But at least I have something! Progress!
Here we go . . .
Who can dig the garden
With a shovel all by hand?
Who can grow a giant pumpkin on his very own land?
The woodchuck man
The woodchuck man can
The woodchuck man can
'cause he uses what he has and makes it work for him.
And, since this is supposed to be a snapshots post . . .
The FFA kids were making centerpieces for their Christmas fundraiser dinner this week. It was right outside my office, and it smelled really good with all the greenery around.
In the hallway by the main office. Everyone feels the stress this time of year, I guess.
Poppy stayed home sick one day I had to work. She was very unhappy about this, so I gave her a job: sorting my earrings.
Poppy had a spa day for her stuffed dog and decided they needed "spa cuisine." (That Fancy Nancy book has made quite an impression.) So she made yogurt with strawberry jam, bananas, and pink and purple sparkly sugar.
There you have it! My life, snapshotted. And happiest of birthdays to A.

I keep forgetting to "sign" my comments--the one above is from Mary in MN.
Happy Birthday, A! Love the pink sparkle sugar!

You comfort a sick child by giving her one of your chores. You do realize how amazing that is, don't you?
She is pretty amazing. :-)
