Welcome
to April at Streampebbles.com! In this issue the story resumes at Memory Lane
of Richie’s Footsteps through life in
an orphanage to joining the military, Leon Stewart offers a story we can all
relate to in Maybe I shouldn’t have… Three
friends find they have more to learn in The
Principal’s principle. And much more for our younger readers!
Spring has
gloriously sprung in southern Arizona! Vibrant colors have exploded in backyard
havens and along less-traveled roadways; artfully re-decorating winter’s drab
terrain for as far as the eye can see; beckoning butterflies, delighting Bees
and Hummingbirds while offering that special palpable sense of newness that
only spring can share! And I know I’m not alone as I embrace this seasonal
splendor with watery eyes and rejoice between sneezes!
In the New
England/Great Lakes area the Native Americans call April the month of the Pink
Moon for the abundance of pink wildflowers. Looks like we can look forward to a
Pink Moon in southern Arizona as well!
April
celebrations include a few of my personal favorites such as National Poetry Month, Library Week and Children’s Book Day. And isn’t it fitting to have a National Lawn & Garden Month along
with National Straw Hat Month?
They’ve reserved an entire week for Read
a Road Map. Does anyone even own one anymore? Can you just imagine how the
world would sound on International
Moment of Laughter Day? I’ll
keep my fingers crossed that the idea of National
Honesty Day is embraced by those who should. And a big shout out to every
persevering, miracle working, secret keeping, fact & file finding expert on
Administrative Assistant’s Day!
April
is a promise that May is bound to keep ~ Hal Borland
Happy April,
Everyone!
