May 1, MayDay Celebration, A tradition and FingerPrint Friday?


Fairy Branch

Here's a branch of snowy May!
A branch the Fairies gave me!
Who would like to dance today
With the branch the fairies gave me?
Dance away Dance away
Holding high the branch of May!
Dance away dance away
Holding high the branch of May!

I love Mayday and I love fairies and if there was going to be a day to see a fairie today would be the day! This is such a nice tradition to start in your school!
My daughter went to a waldorf preschool where they did a fancy maypole with real dance movements. I learned a lot there about Maypoles and fairies! I switched her over to a public elementary school. In 1st grade my then husband and I built a maypole and donated it to the shool. All the kids and parents signed the pole and dated it with th year. Some of the other parents and I made fairy wreaths for the girls hair and bell bracelets for the boys. We made a picnic lunch and took 2 of the lucky classes over to Central Park for a fun afternoon under the cherry blossoms. We did this for 3 years, by 3rd grade the girls were tying the boys to the pole!

Well I don't know if this really qualifies for Fingerprint Friday but I know the times I am happiest and the things that make life meaningful for me are doing things like Mayday celebration and teaching 60 children about something they may have never heard about or participated in if it wasn't for me (this time!) And I am not bragging it is an honor to have been able to participate and initiate this in a public school and to have a principle and teachers that were open to it! And a ton of parents to help out! Happy May!

Faith Renewed

By the end of winter my faith is sometimes lost, seeing


God at work in the spring is an instant renewal for me.

Live from New York




I have not moved from my sewing machine for the last 2 weeks except to run down to the post office! Until Tonight--we were so lucky!! We got to go to the first game ever at the new Yankee Statium! I don't go out much and even though I wiash I was a farm girl, these kind of nights make me happy to be a New Yorker, riding the subway up to the Bronx and the New Stadium is beautiful! The 7th inning take me out to the ball game song and thw West Point cadets with a huge American Flag , oh and the Yankees won! And when we were leaving tonight they were playing Frank Sinatra singin New York New York you could hear it all the way to the subway--a great night!

FINGERPRINT FRIDAY

All I can get to lately is fingerprint friday. To Join in go to Pampering Beckie here! This is the sky from in front of my apt building. I guess this reminds me of God's fingerprint because it shows me in my world from my front door how little I can see of the sky, yet I know there is a beautiful sunset going on somewhere I cannot see. Sometimes it's hard to have faith in what cannot be seen, this lets me know it exists.
