February Air

I finally found my "chicken soup with rice" book! Enjoy this excerpt:

"In February it will be
my snowman's anniversary
with cake for him and soup for me!
Happy once
Happy twice
Happy chicken soup with rice"

I don't know what it is about that book that tickles me so. I suppose because it's so reminiscent of my childhood. A friend and I were just discussing the books we read when we were young the other day. It's strange how after all these years I think I love those children's books even more than I did when I was a child. Things were a lot simpler then, and since now my life is anything but simple, it's nice to have something to remind me of the days that are long gone.
