Story time comes to life on Halloween night
Toddler thoughts share dinosaur songs
Mixing blush smiles purple
Unwrapping new dimensions
At least a dozen or two
Friends…relatives
Spooks and goblins
Render those
Holiday themes combining a wonder of magic
With childhood impressions
Crayon and markers
Slinky and play doe
Colored paper
Picnic lunches
With Baby Bop
Mixing discovery
Itsy Bitsy Spider
Smooches & hugs
Caring
Dancing
Imagining
Playrooms flung open wide
Skipping in the Park
Hide & Seek, full of shapes
Counting with BJ
Peek a boo with Barney
Reading along
Silly stories & songs
Down filled curious, looking high
Peering through porcelain tea set
Coloring outside all the lines

    


Hair ribbons peek out
Emanating from an autumn reflection
Pillowcases and Mother Goose
Sharing Golden Books
Washing behind the ears & brushing teeth
Where little miss leaves cookie crumbs
Running tiptoe shortcuts
Brownies
Building tents
Eating Alphabets
Coloring books

    

Story time eyes through cartoons
London Bridge
Circus voyage
Ring around the Rosy
Giving thanks before we eat
Wide eyed goldfish treats
All things petite yet so main key
Leap frog and backspins
All smiles cuddly just for MIM

What a delightful capturing of fun, innocence and childhood memories LeeJ ... and the pictures are adorable! I very much enjoyed the essence of this piece, as well as the remembrances it brought to mind as I read.

Best wishes,
/Kit

Melt my heart - warm fuzzies.  I loved answering the door Halloween and seeing the wee ones all pretend and pretty - filled with the magic of the night - loved this-

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

How absolutely delightful!
Sorry it took so long to finally get to this little treasure, but it was worth the wait.
You have captured childhood itself in this piece

Love to a lovely grandmother

Oh this is delightful Lee!!
Is this your granddaughter?
How adorable she is!!!!
Ahhh..this brought back so many memories.
A keeper for my library for sure...click.

Now while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again..and again.
