    I love this rundown on the month ahead. Barnyard Dance is one of our favorites too. My husband still sings it. And your 3 Ghost Friends shirt is fabulous! Cafepress?

    Great line-up Eric. I love these monthly post and though I'm not a big poetry fan, I'm going to check out the poet you mentioned and listen to some of the poetry clips.

    Happy Reading!

      Thanks Jackie! I am so glad you like the video blogs. I really had a hard time finding a quiet moment to get it filmed -- our house is a little crazy right now :)

      I hope you like Renee LaTulippe's No Water River. She is providing a great poetry resource.

      I think this is my fifth video blog and so far it seems like it works for giving a run down of my highlighted birthdays. I just wish it didn't take me so long to do -- so many blunders!

      Thanks for raving about me! I am not on linkedin -- is that something I should be doing too?

      Thanks Linda! April certainly is busy. Thanks for noticing the Three Ghost Friends T-shirt! Since, you are my mother-in-law, I think we can get you one! Thank you so much for your support of my writing and blogging!
