July fun

Enjoy some recent pictures and two more Shel Silversten poems!

Highlights:

I'm 36 weeks pregnant!

I got a haircut and color.

Daphné got to play with Robi and Cricri!

Two beach picnics.

Visit from friends from Italy.

Petrignani family beach picnic.

Precious time with our gal.

Captain Hook must remember
 

Not to scratch his toes. 

 

Captain Hook must watch out

 

And never pick his nose. 

Captain Hook must be gentle

When he shakes your hand.

Captain hook must be careful

Openin’ sardine cans

And playing tag and pouring tea

and turnin’ pages of this book.

Lots of folks I’m glad I ain’t—

But mostly Captain Hook! 

-Shel Silverstein

So you haven’t got a drum, just beat your belly.

So I haven’t got a horn—I’ll play my nose.

So we haven’t any cymbals—

We’ll just slap our hands together,

And though there may be orchestras

  That sound a little better

With their fancy shiny instruments

That cost an awful lot—

Hey, we’re making music twice as good

By playing what we’ve got!

-Shel Silverstein
