Christmas poetry is a great idea too - Twas the Night Before Christmas immediately comes to mind! And The Grinch counts too, right??? Oh man, I love it. Way to get all the kids involved. :)kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04906525676759757900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-9467921601766289722015-09-30T16:51:40.287-05:002015-09-30T16:51:40.287-05:00It was great!

Too many overly sensitive art student types reciting their own anguish-laden poetry. Yours looks much more fun. Haiku and limericks should be compulsory for kids, keep it short and funny. Oh and Baudelaire for the grown ups! :)<br />Lots of fun!Lightning McStitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955101913822685967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512686951576132673.post-79959319953692004712015-09-29T20:47:15.512-05:002015-09-29T20:47:15.512-05:00This post is so great!!!

I love the picture of Indigo tickling Iris, and Hazey doing the "wave" in front of Tia. What a beautiful family you have. So much joy here. Love the idea of a poetry reading!
