We went to the track on Sunday, because the weather (when it’s not raining), has been amazing. I hate to say this, because I don’t want it to get scared and go back to where it came from, but I think fall might actually be here. We also went because I hadn’t run since the half marathon and I was anxious to stretch my legs a little.

When we got there, Ivy put a notebook and pencil in her bike basket in case she “needed to stop and write a song.” Everything big sister does, little sister does, so the two of them were composing the whole time we were there.

Ivy’s song started out as “the latees on the street” (the ladies on the street), but thankfully, she changed it to this:

the letis, the letis, do you no the letis

the letis, the letis, do you no the letis

(and if you know how to spell already, it’s “the lettuce, the lettuce, do you know the lettuce”)

When we got home, Essie scribbled in the same notebook and asked us to sing her songs.

I love their creativity so much.

I mentioned it a little, but I’ve got a super exciting event coming up here….next Monday morning, I’ll have an auction (here, on my blog) to raise more money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Many people have very generously donated really amazing goods and services, and you’ll have the opportunity to bid on them. All of the money will go directly to LLS, so not only will you be able to get things for yourself or someone you know, but you’ll be helping a fantastic organization that does so much for blood cancer patients and their loved ones. You can check out a sneak preview of most of the items on my Facebook page.
