For
my boys. A list poem with all the birds we have identified in our
yard.
lol!! I was waiting for something ;) they proved they deserve it! cheers:)
ReplyDelete;-) What a championship game that was!
Deletethis bird count
ReplyDeleteyoung minds see the changes
nature's plan
Nifty Jenn, the learning! _m
It is really fun to watch and identify them!
DeleteLOL and here I thought it was an email about our feathered friends :)
ReplyDeleteClever twist
lol...thanks Keith :)
Deleteha. i am happy for you...you lived through some rough years here til recently....
ReplyDeletei just cant stand richard sherman...though i will give him props for playing hurt this week...it was a great comeback...
Smiles...thanks...the kids around here are so amped! Sherman may not be your taste B...but he is amazing. There is more to him than his mouth. He grew up midst gangland, avoided that life and graduated from HS with a 4.2 and then from Stanford with a 3.9. He is expressive, no doubt, but some might argue that is part of the game...smiles... I think it's interesting some of his harshest critics say nothing about the words and actions of some hip hop artists while buying their music, or other athletes, who are worse offenders in other ways. The bias confounds me. There's a cool article here if you're interested: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/isaac-saul/what-richard-sherman-taught-us_b_4631980.html.
DeleteA list poem - how interesting! I will have to try and take one of those on, sometime.
ReplyDeleteI'll look forward to it, when you do!
DeleteI'm sure your kids appreciate all birds in our area...esp. now the Seahawks! Yay;)
ReplyDeleteHey fellow Washington lady! We all do enjoy watching the birds that come around, my youngest especially. Go Hawks! :-)
DeleteVery touching. My hello to the lovely ones.
ReplyDeleteHi Rajesh, thanks for coming by. :)
