| Princess by the Sea for Mellow Yellow Monday |
This sweet child, and a real corker I might add, is our granddaughter. The Princess is coming for a visit.
We may be having tea parties, tent sleepovers with our grandson, and visiting the outdoor sites of San Diego. Plus, there's a garden to plant!
So much to do, seeing Balboa Park, the zoo, Sea World and an aquarium. Running around our 2 1/2 acre ranch should burn some calories. Then I will look forward to the naps.
My apologies in advance if I get off the blogging schedule. At my age, I have learned that there is nothing finer than to hold a young one close by and read for hours on end.
Then to get up and head straight to the kitchen with our aprons on, grabbing the wooden spoon to whip up a sweet treat for all. Rest assured, I'll be taking oodles of pictures.
Hugs all around to the 'little people' who grow so quickly, right before your eyes. Amazing how we mark time passing by the growth of our friend's children and our own.
Here is a delightful and charming picture book that is a delightful twist on a traditional tale, including all kinds of opportunities for mathemagical fun!
