Just for Fun

I went to a craft sale this morning but was disappointed. There was nothing that caught my fancy so I stopped in at a thrift store that was nearby.  Do you remember I had some pretty dolls that I used to display on some stairs in our home?  I had put them away but decided to get them out again after seeing another lovely doll at the thrift store for the incredible price of fifty cents!!

                               
                                           The doll on the left is the new one.

I've noticed that as people get busier at this time of year posts get fewer.  I know for myself that I find it hard to think of something to write about.
 Just for fun I thought I'd include a nursery rhyme/poem in each post this month. I'm sure we all remember reading them to our children and grandchildren. Most of these will be from our very old Childcraft set.  I had preschoolers around for 35 years, first my own kids then I did daycare for others. I also had the privilege of taking care of all 5 of my grands until they were school age ( and a few I had after school as well).  So I read many of these poems over the years.

Every day we see squirrels in the big trees in the yard behind us. They seem so sure-footed as they leap from one tree to the other.  So this will be the first poem I post.

Oh yes, and did you know that today, November 3, is apparently National day of the Sandwich?

Thanks for sticking around till the end of this post!!
