Sparkle Little Lightning Bug


Janney picked up an Eric Carle book that we have borrowed from the library. She opened up the last page to watch it twinkle, and broke out in song. It was so cute, I went to get the camera and then had her do it again.




The Very Lonely Firefly, 1995
Young readers empathize with the lonely firefly who makes many errors as he looks for the group where he will really “belong.” In his search for compatible companions, he meets many other night creatures, but none is quite right—until the happy surprise at the very end when the illustration of a swarm of friendly fireflies literally shines and twinkles a welcome in the night. Heartwarming.

Amy, Emmeline, and I are reading your blog together this evening. We all agree that Janney's song and dance was wonderful, adorable, delightful!

I love your blog's new look, too. Very pretty.

You know, Sombra, you are living the life I've always wanted...a little farm, a lot of love, each day overflowing with joy and happiness.

Love you,
Susan
