Dr. Spock
Believe it or not as an early childhood educator and even a licensed practical nurse I have never read 'Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care' book from beginning to end. Guess what I did just that and I found out that I actually did follow the rules that he set for several development stages of growth and development. This is a book that Dr. Spock wrote with another doctor Michael B. Rothenberg, MD. This is a book that starts out describing the parents then working through what is needed for a new baby as well as basic baby and childcare skills like bathing, feeding and dressing, etc. The book also cover the time of life known as adolescence, why schools are important. There are sections dealing with childhood diseases, medications, first aid and CPR and finishing up with various special topics. The illustrations were pencil sketches, but they were kind of cute in a way. Even though some of the ideas may seem far-fetched and outdated who knew that they still worked.

Memorial Day
In the month of May at the end there's a holiday known as Memorial Day. It is a day set aside to give praise and honor to all who served this country known as America. It is a day that family and friends have a barbeque of hamburgers and hot dogs, potato salad, and some form of dessert and some kind of beverage depending on the wants of those that tend to want iced tea, beer or some other form of drink. Just remember this saying while remembering on this day. "Lest We Forget."

McGuffey's Eclectic Readers
My new writing project is to write and share stories in Gregg shorthand. In these first short pieces I am a little rusty since I learned this skill in my Junior year in high school and I have been graduated for 41 years. Just remember this first 'lesson' and subsequent lessons are from McGuffey's primer reader and really not much to read. I am continuing to practice and review my shorthand so a few symbols will be slightly off kilter. Please comment on this and others that I am going to write and share.

Mehndi Designs #4
Still another Mehndi design that I colored for this rabbit intrigued me the way he was posed. I duplicated the colors I used with the animal, as well as with a lot of the flowers surrounding the rabbits. Again, I am hoping for comments and maybe $tips$ on the work. These images will be posted here on Critique and/or ART.

Mehndi designs #3
Here's a Mehndi design that I colored using colored pencils the medium of my choice. This design I colored shows some patterning of the use of the colors used especially on the top and bottom of the work. I am hoping for comments on this work and the others. I am going to post these on ART and Critique, so I am hoping for feedback. To be honest I am also hoping maybe to receive $tips$.

Fifth Grade
On to the fifth grade when I had my first man teacher. This was my last year at one of the local elementary schools that my school district had at the time and it was a year that seemed to require more manners since we were the oldest students in the school. It was 1975 and I remember we actually got some new textbooks for science and health that were up-to-date. We were all just growing up and changing day to day as well as I think seeing others in a new way.

Fourth Grade
Who remembers fourth grade? This was the year that some called Upper elementary, and it did feel like we were not little kids anymore. The subjects got a little more detailed in the information presented and the homework got to be more presentable to the teacher. Fourth grade was the year of starting to really grow in many ways.

September
September the end of Summer and the beginning of Fall and my favorite time of year the beginning of a new school year. I was one of those people who liked new school supplies, new books, new teachers and seeing and catching up with school friends. September is also when Fall cleanups for started as raking leaves and maybe splitting wood for the fireplace with a sledgehammer and chisel. Believe it or not that was kind of fun at times.

Paddington IV
Michael Bond wrote a fourth in this series entitled 'Paddington At Work' where Paddington learns about various occupations and how to earn some money when he needs it. He visits several locations in order to learn these lessons. Again, in reading this series of children's novels one will see that mistakes will be made but given a chance one will learn and correct what is wrong if given a chance to explain.

Paddington V
Michael Bond in the Paddington series of five 'Paddington At Large' is the last one that I have read. This is one where Paddington has a day out with a friend, goes on television, makes a snack, helps out a neighbor the only way that he knows how, and makes Christmas special once again. All the illustrations in this volume as well as the other four volumes were drawn by Peggy Fortnum as pencil sketches of Mr. Paddington Brown of Number 32 Windsor Gardens, London.
