ReplyDeleteNow you make me want to go eat watermelon because I haven't had ANY this summer =(
Kristi, I was excited to see your Thankful Thursday posts! It really makes you realize how BLESSED we are when you sit down and list it. I think I could make myself sick off of watermelon...that's how much I eat it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, and enjoy your weekend!

I love going to workshops where you get to take stuff home....other than my notes, of course!
ReplyDeleteAnnesta, I know! That's always a fun surprise. The book has some really practical mini-lessons to use in teaching writing. I'm excited to put it to work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, friend!
