The World According To Micki Grant
I always love finding a hidden gem off off Broadway. The New Federal Theater in its new digs (or temporary, not sure) produced "The Life According To Micki Grant". Directed by Nora Cole, (I wasn't given a program), this musical focuses on the life of Minie Perkins, she became Micki by nickname and Grant after her first husband. "He was a good man so I kept his name," she tells us.

Dibs
'Dibs' a novel written by Virginia M. Axline. This is a novel of a small boy named Dibs in search of himself. Dibs needs to learn who and what he is in perspective the place he holds in his family, school and the community. The first time I read this novel was part of a Play therapy course in a Master's Counseling program. Some chapters are short, and some are of medium length, but it could be read in one sitting if your time permits. Actually, I have read this book a few times and there is always something to learn even for adults that are parents, teachers, and anyone who wants to help children grow.

Broken Thread
Quite a long time ago, in a curious town settled between moving slopes and murmuring streams, there carried on with a young lady named Elara. She was known for her delicate nature and her talented hands that could mesh the most mind boggling designs into texture. Elara's life rotated around her art, and she tracked down comfort in the musical dance of her loom.

Third Grade
So, what about third grade? This is the year that we really started with the new math so to speak. We are now entering multiplication from the threes through the twelves, fractions that include mixed and improper. There is a new subject in social studies known as history which is mainly the colonies and a little of the American revolution, but really only a taste. It was also the first year that we as students had our first achievement tests to see how we were progressing. My first third grade teacher was named Mrs. Bellstrom who for reason it seemed did not seem to care to much about me, but she became a mother and was replaced by Mrs. Donley who did like me and she liked the students to help her with little classroom chores to improve responsibility for we were no longer little ones, but growing up.

Sunny Days
Sunny days keeping the clouds away.... Who remembers the children's program that started each show in this manner. It is a show that is still on that teaches young children their letters, numbers and even foreign language mainly Spanish. Now the program also shares many social issues as well to help learn about cultural diversity. There are many characters that range from a big bird to two friends, a grouch and a 'snuffaluggagus' as well a vampire.

Guardian Angel
Who believes in guardian angels? I am a believer for there have been many times that I have felt someone following me and there was no one there when I looked. There were a few times when I thought I seen someone who looked familiar but I knew it could not have been them for they were, for lack of a better word, DEAD. Guardian angels to me are angels that one may or may not see who seem to help make decisions or protect us from harm. One experience I had when swimming when I was younger and pushed off the dock into the creek for, I was little and did not know how to swim yet I felt like someone was pulling me up and over to the ladder.
