Writer on a Horse
And a Dog

The world looks better from the back of a horse and the roads of life are easier with a good dog beside you.

I love surprises... to get an unexpected package in the mail

But it is a little scary to discover that there are people out there that know you so well... Love it Irene

A pre WWII nesting egg and the little dot between them is a little chick









And I had to add a little chick humor in honor of Easter.

It's a doggy kind of day

This is so not my kind of book, yet I picked it up because I'm a dog person... my thought, how bad can it be with three dogs in the story... here is what I learned from this book, you can't pre-judge books because they're not what you normally read... I hate books that should have a warning... need a tissue, no a whole box of tissue but I loved this book. I loved it so much that I sent out my copy to friends and they loved it too.













loved this book too... If you've not read this book... get it you will love it

A heart-warming and inspirational tale in which Enzo, a loyal family dog, tells the story of his human family, how they nearly fell apart, and what he did to bring them back together.

2014 Kidlitosphere Progressive Poem

Happy Poetry Month!  Hope everyone enjoys my addition to the 2014 Progressive Poem, organized by Irene Latham.  Follow the progress of this poem by checking out the links below.   How cool is it to have 30 different people adding to one poem.








Sitting on a rock, airing out my feelings to the universe
Acting like a peacock, only making matters that much worse;
Should I trumpet like an elephant emoting to the moon,
Or just ignore the warnings written in the rune?
Those stars can’t seal my future; it’s not inscribed in stone.
The possibilities are endless! Who could have known? 


Gathering courage, spiral like an eagle after prey
