This was 3 years ago and the wheel moves over the hill!
Today
my son
is 37 years old!
I was
37 when
I birthed him.
Wait
for the
circle of life.
Ride
the wheel
down the hill
over the hill
up the hill.

Ziggy Marley shakes the dust
Ziggy Marley
sings for Redemption
My life became reggae
when the Cable tech came with his Jamaican helpfulness
when I danced to Reggae music with my Alzheimer’s friend
when The Netflix BBC Show was about Jamaican voodoo protection
when my e-friend, FrizzText, posted the music of Bob Marley and son.
Some of this came in the cloud,
some in human footprints.
Some of this moved our feet:
All of this was fine art,
rocky shaking redemption!

Last night, I attended the Picture Book Summit
with Katie Davis, Julie Hedlund, Laura Backes, Jon Bard and Emma Walton Hamilton.
The multi-media was spectacular!
Visuals succinct
Presenters well integrated
Topic highly relevant
The mini summit was a tasty appetizer to attend the Oct maxi summit!
While 4 videos streamed, there were visuals of book covers and names, as well as hundreds of chat comments from 100 participants!
The presenters performed 3 activities masterfully all at once! BRAVO!
