Happy Birthday Skye!

Our sweet Skye turned 7! Here are some interesting facts about Skye:
*Skye can climb anything (you can often find her up our Sycamore, on top of the playset, or climbing the basketball standard).
*Skye has a loving heart. She is my biggest helper and takes better care of Nathan than I do;-)
*Skye is an artist.
*Skye is joyful.

A few weeks ago Skye wrote several poems. They have great illustrations, but I thought I would just share the text.

How much

Yes it is
Then here

Amerjensy Exit (Emergency Exit)

Where is a amerjensy
exit? There is
a fire so where
is the amerjensy
exit?

I wish I could include the art for this poem. It shows a streak of black humor. There is a picture of an emergency exit with a big fire blocking the door. When I asked her to explain her picture she said "I wanted to make it funny."

Did I mention she is prolific?

Note: Skye is reading this post as I write and is quite pleased that she is now published on the web:-) I asked her about the meaning of her poems (My baby is quite disturbing!) and she said "I just make them up."
