Poem in Your Pocket Day
/Yesterday I mentioned that today is Poem in Your Pocket Day. I love this event and the Noodle's school does too, although they celebrated last week for some reason. In any case, I got this awesome book of poems for kids so the Noodle could choose something for his pocket and ended up finding a perfect one for me too.
I carried this poem in my pocket last week and I cannot tell you how giddy I felt when some of his classmates asked me if I had a poem in my pocket and I said, "YES!"
I had grand, grand I say, plans to get an oversized blazer at the thrift store and sew 32 pockets on it and fill them just as the poem described. I wanted to make a bee out of felt and get a little packet of honey from a restaurant. I was going to put a little container of water for melted snow. I had it all planned out! And then, I got sick. But, watch out 2011!
