Friday Nature Table

Halloween Fall Blessing
By Ava, age 4

Autumn starts when trees lose their leaves and leaf garlands come out.
When trick or treat brings you candy,
when spiders webs go on trees,
and scarecrows come to farmers
when butterflies leave.




Watercolor picture to accompany the blessing that Ava wrote for our lunch table.  Complete with Jack o lantern, bats, ghosts, full moon, and stars.
Can I ever express how much I LOVE her art?  Water colors and poems for our table?  All her idea?  Oh my sweet baby goodness!

Thank you to The Magic Onion for bringing together all of the Friday Nature Tables!
Here's to hoping we all find some art and poetry in our lives this season!
