Dreamers are often misunderstood. They’re thought of as eccentric, sometimes lazy, or believers in pie-in-the-sky nonsense. As much as I might disagree on a certain level, I still understand it. After all, a lot of dreamers appear to be in a fog a lot of the time. And many dreamers don’t have a clue as to how to build up a foundation for their … The rest of the story…
I’m in the large group of people who say breakfast is the best meal of the day. Some of my fondest memories in life have been around the breakfast table. My earliest recollections include smelling what I call my BET breakfast…bacon, eggs, and toast. I can actually remember my great grandparents house in Oklahoma where they cooked on a wood-burning stove. Yep, it was … The rest of the story…
Finger Painting
I can still remember…way back in the last century…when I was a kid, the really fun times I had finger painting. It was like talking with your hands…only in living color. Moms and teachers seemed to always find a way to get the right kind of supplies together so that the kids could have fun, and the mess would be easy to clean up. … The rest of the story…
Depending on what you believe, or what you were taught, or what part of the world you come from most think either Sunday or Monday is the first day of the week. I’m OK with either one being the first as long as neither one is my last this week. After all…does it really matter what day you start the week? As long as … The rest of the story…
Tomorrow never comes. Yet, there’s always tomorrow. In the big picture, those two sentences aren’t mutually exclusive. It’s why I say “ride the wind” when it’s windy…drink up when it rains. Sunbathe when others complain of the heat. Your days here on earth are very, very short. Don’t take yourself so seriously that you can’t sieze the moment with the enthusiasm of kids. Kids … The rest of the story…
One Little Bitty Word Maybe right now you’re in the middle of your weekend, and you just happened to take a break to see what sort of writing for kids Tony shared today. If so, thank you for that. I know you’d much rather go mow the lawn than read my little bitty blog posts. But here you are, like the truly dedicated fan … The rest of the story…
It’s the weekend, kids. Do you know what that means? That’s right…time for cartoons, pancakes, and letting mom and dad wait on you hand and foot. Right? Uh…I don’t think so. You know how much your moms and dads love you. But do you know all the things they have to do to make sure you have food and clothes and a place to … The rest of the story…
I’ve been an adult for a long, long time now. Tiny time is a distant memory for me. But it IS a memory. I haven’t forgotten how important little things are…when you’re little. In fact, when you’re little, little things aren’t little, they’re big. So tiny time is a big deal. Do you get what I mean? If you’re not over the age of … The rest of the story…
Kids Eat Free
If you’re a parent or family on a budget, you probably like seeing that familiar sign: Kids Eat Free I don’t remember a lot of that when I was a kid, but then again, I wasn’t looking for those signs. I was just happy to be going. If someone said “we’re goin’ out for burgers”…they didn’t have to wait for me. I’d be in … The rest of the story…
Weekends tend to get all the positive attention while week days tend to be looked upon as something you have to get through. So, if week days could walk and talk, maybe they’d end up whining about their lives and their jobs…just like we humans do. The Weak Days Wednesday walked into the room And looked around and said, “I don’t know why I … The rest of the story…
