As a "give-away" for families attending a day care's Christmas party, I created a rhyme-filled handout. The handout provided a few "universal truths" about the world of kids including "Too Many!" Years later, I was glancing through a celebrity magazine during my visit to the Laundromat -- my response to the universal truth about washing machines (i.e., they only break down AFTER my laundry piles up). And much to my delight, I saw a photo of an actress and her young daughter taking a walk down a busy street. Clearly, the little girl had dressed herself that morning -- in a sweater with "too many" buttons!
Welcome! Here's a "slice-of-life" view of the world according to kids and a favorite Great Auntie. You'll read rhymes about backyard critters, pets, the weather, special occasions, families, friends, school, church and play. For it is the small events of life – the brief moments in time – that leave a lasting impression. And though the site is designed for kids, it is the adult reader who can convert the sharing of one small rhyme into a story that teaches and inspires those who are young.
