A promise to myself. Just write. Saturday, March 31, 2012. So why hadn't she moved yet? Why wasn't she leaving? She stood in the middle of her kitchen. Shoes on. Coat on. Keys held in her hand. She shifted her weight back and forth, slowly, unknowingly, restlessly. She played with the zipper on her jacket. Up and down, up and down, up and down. Sighs escaping her breath. Arms dangling at her sides. Eyes staring blanking. Empty. She was home again. Friday, March 30, 2012. A Case of He Said/She Said. The a...

For the image that moves with the word. A Gift a Day: December’s Photo-a-Day Challenge. November 30, 2014. I need the inspiration 😍. Thinking Through My Lens. There are so many gifts that are intangible, you simply can’t go to the store to buy them. And yet, through a photograph you can get a glimpse of the possibilities. I can think of many who would appreciate the gift of abundance. I couldn’t resist this shot of the shelves at the Filippi’s Pizza Restaurant in Little Italy today. Newer post →. On Gem...

Literate Lives: New Series Show Promise
http://literatelives.blogspot.com/2015/06/new-series-show-promise.html
Good books and how to use 'em with kids. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. New Series Show Promise. Over the years I've updated the series by weeding those that didn't get used and adding new titles like the Ball Park Mysteries, Calvin Coconut and Roscoe Riley just to name a few. I'm always on the lookout for something new to appeal to a larger audience and recently I have found three that I think will do nicely. Teddy Mars: Almost a World Record Breaker. By Molly B. Burnham. Ill by Trevor Spencer. Ill by Meg Park.

Good books and how to use 'em with kids. Thursday, July 16, 2015. Tops of 2015.so far. There's a lot of good stuff this year, so it wasn't easy to narrow my list down to top 5, all of these titles are easily interchangeable with other titles but I had to start somewhere. I'd love to hear what titles you have on your list that are missing from mine. My top 5 picture books for 2015.so far, are:. If You Plant a Seed. Obviously the illustrations are beautiful and the simple lesson about sharing is too. Start...

Supporting Educators, One Letter at a Time. Slice of Life Day 27. March 27, 2015. Have to admit, I am really ticked at myself for only commenting on 1 slice yesterday. And as I mull it over in my head and the excuses fly about, I tell my inner voice to “SHUT UP! IT WAS NEVER SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT THE PRIZES! 8221; (I mean, I really do love winning prizes…this is why I love the basket raffle experience so much, oh and at a Bingo night, I am like a five year old kid! I am celebrating today with ordering mys...

Supporting Educators, One Letter at a Time. Slice of Life Day 24. March 25, 2015. There once lived a city mouse who met a girl mouse and the two fell in love. They lived happily together until a ferocious feline came along. This cat was dreaded by every mouse in the land. The city mouse became a country mouse and the four mice became a family. They were united under mouse law, and one year ago welcomed a new little one: The city mouse’s first baby. He called her. Share on Facebook (Opens in new window).

Supporting Educators, One Letter at a Time. Slice of Life Day 25. March 26, 2015. I am a Facebook lurker, a liker, a once-in-a-rare-while commenter but definitely not a poster. Occasionally, I will share a photo of my kids or the whole family. So, when the two of us took a real vacation in the first week of January, I am ashamed to admit this, but we never made it Facebook Official and it kinda felt like it didn’t really happen. No comments no likes = no one knows we went. Every time we stand at the sink...
