patch on my heart


When we say patch we could be talking about many things. a tire patch, patch on your jeans, computer patch or patch Adams .this time I’m talking about a pumpkin patch .the one we go to every year but last year . It is great! I have pictures from their first Halloween till now .I can’t even believe that they are the same kids. So many things for the kids to do hay rides, slides, bounce houses, playhouses, hay mazes, cut outs face painting and more. Buy a pumpkin or don’t but just come for the fun and we do

pumpkin


Ode to pumpkins
Seed to sprout
Sprout to vine
Crawling on the ground
Vine to flower
Bright and yellow
Now flower on the ground, small green ball is only left
Growing growing still
Back to yellow growing bigger! Wow!
Rounder rounder taking shape
I can hardly wait
Yellow to orange
Orange and large
Large and round
It’s so big, needed help, to get it off the ground
To the table, out comes the knife!
Let’s Make a Nose mouth and eyes!
Now the fun begins.
Light the candle
Put it on the porch
We carry on the torch

elephant

I once had a baby elephant. My mother let me keep her in the house .her name was Ella
She was so helpful, friendly and cute.
She would move the couch when mom vacuumed .she would help my dad wash the car, and water the grass.
It never took us long to get to school .all the cars would just stop and stare.
The other children in the neighborhood were jealous.
They whined to their folks “why can she have an elephant and I only get a goldfish?”
The only problem that I ever had was...
all the Ella poop
