Monday Muse
It is officially spring break here. Spring break doesn't really mean that though..it's more like a snowy week out of school, followed by a long last week with a very sick child, who is still recovering from what must have been the flu:( On the bright side, I get to catch up on the blog thing & take more pictures, knit & read a new book, & come up with creative ways to past the time indoors..yet again for the sixth month. I try & stay positive, but sometimes a girl just needs to vent. I AM SICK OF WINTER!!!! SICK OF MY SNOWBOOTS, SICK OF MY DOWN COAT & LAYERS & LAYERS OF CLOTHES I MUST WEAR AT ALL TIMES!!! SICK OF RUSHING HERE & THERE BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE A FREEZER OUTSIDE. Can I just have one sunny, extremely warm day..I promise to never take you for granted.

Wonder
I started reading "Wonder" by R.J. Palacio yesterday. I'm already in love with August, the main character. Last year, it won the NAIBA book of the year for middle schoolers & this year it's a potential Newbery winner. The dedication reminded me of this amazing song/album by Natalie Merchant, Tigerlily. I listened to that album over & over for many years.
