Give a kid a little web-time and they'll take over! Here's a new blog to follow:

Here's some more original poetry from our house:

Jols and Flawrs (Jewels and Flowers)
Shining shining
Bide culrfl flawrs(pretty, colorful flowers)
Pek and blo (pink and blue)
Sbreg is hir (spring is near)
It is so biwtufl (it is so beautiful)
Seging grl hir and jar (singing girls here and there)
And petno ol spring (and pretty little spring)

Dolphins Splash
Dolphins splash among the waves
Dolphins splash wile (while) exploring underwater caves
Dolphins splash on you and I
Dolphins splash a watery sigh

A black Cat
To most people black cats are spooky
To me they're a luckey charrm
Black cats are among my favorite animals
To others they mean harm

One Day I Saw A Cheetah
A cheetas orange coat with spots zips by
Its going so fast - I wonder why
Perhaps its playing a game
Or maby others are laughing at its name
I'll probobly never find out
But if I do I'll giv a great shout:
Horray

Poetry by the greats

My kids have been writing poetry. Here are their latest creations:

Books
A book can take you anywhere
A book can be scary to raise your hair
A book could be full of magical creatures
But another book could be how to change your features
Still another book could be about you
But another book about someone you knew
I love books


A Rose Surprise
A rose is a thing of beauty
You give them to a cutie
But you'd better beware
'Cause a wasp could give you quite a scare
You'd come in like you'd seen a bear
And a bee could sting you on a knee
You'd shout and shout oowwwee! oowwwee!
A rose is a thing of beauty
Just use fake ones to give to your cutie


Hune, Hune in the the Sgi

Hune, hune, in the sgi (honey, honey in the sky)
Hune, hune, dir Carlie, I (honey, honey, dear Carlie I)
Ch at ch at (shout, shout)
Up so hi (up so high)
Bloberes to et (blueberries to eat)
Rasberes to et (raspberries to eat)

Bix (Bikes)
Bix (Bikes)
Sgodrs Deg(scooters ding)
Bix crsh (Bikes Crash)
Bageing bigr ples (beginning biking please)
Bix to rid (Bikes to ride)

This one is about how sweet I am

You are as swet as pi (you are as sweet as pie)
you are as swet as flawrs (you are as sweet as flowers)
and hrts and firwrx (and hearts and fireworks)
swet, swet hamuch you are swet (sweet, sweet, how much you are sweet)

Libraries, parks and exploring

The girls and I did some exploring earlier this week.
While my last post didn't work (the library video) here's the sweat on my little one's nose that she worked up hip hopping with the rapper about Dr. Seuss.
 


We spent some time going to a couple of different parks. I needed to take some pictures for my business in this one - the girls loved the little wishing well waterfall.
 

 


After several busses and bridges and lots of walking, we finally found this pirate park. We'd heard about it for years, but hadn't ever been able to find it. Unfortunately, it started to rain (more than the previous sprinkling we'd endured) so we had to postpone the rest of our play to another day.

Hip Hop at the Library

I'm hoping this video will work. The library had a hip hop artist come to the reading time program. We couldn't understand a word he said and it was SO darn loud - on the flip side, it was oh so fun to watch my kids trying to dance. Check out my little one in the purple on the right hand side:
