As the new year approaches, I just want to say thank you to all of you for taking part in my photo challenges.

It's been fun coming up with prompts and seeing everyone's posts! Thank you so much!

Funny, short book that teaches kids when to say "Thank You" and "No Thank You" to a ridiculous Octopus sailor. Reading it with my wee boy while he wore red Mickey Mouse pajamas at 5 am was a gift. #4stars #kidsbooks #picturebooks #wackyoctopus
