A Visit from a Leprechaun

A Visit from a Leprechaun

This is a re-print of a St. Pat’s Day post I wrote a few years back. It’s still a good memory for me. Kindergarteners are eager to learn, have good imaginations, and the neat thing is, they love a game of make-believe. I’ll always remember this leprechaun episode and smile. “God needed laughter in the […]

Fran’s Leprechaun Luncheon

It’s fun to remember enjoyable times, isn’t it? This morning, I’m re-printing a post I wrote in 2016, two years ago. This was at Fran’s house before she and her husband moved to South Carolina.

At the Table We Sat, We Three, Brimming with Acuity

Opening Day of Duck Season, a poem by John Philpot, started our critique off with a bang. Jane has known Mr. Philpot for a number of years as he came from her home town of Mena, Arkansas. His rhymed verse that Jane read kept Peg and me in stitches. He is a television personality and […]
