Flutterby | Stephen Cosgrove

Spent the day in the pool yesterday and butterflies were everywhere. Felt inspired (not my pic).

Fancy fluttering
flitting freely — fabulous,
flirty, fantastic. 🦋

Show and Tell | Patricia Relf

2025 has been rough. I haven't had the bandwidth to do anything with #LitsyCrafters the 1st half of the year. I didn't have the interest to do anything creative until the end of May. But I'm getting back into creating & I want to share that joy with y'all.
So I'm starting #ShowAndTellTuesday 🌟I want to bring some nostalgia & that excitement you had as a kid when it was Show & Tell day at school & you got to show off something you were proud of⬇️

Comet in Moominland (Farrar Straus Giroux) | Tove Jansson, Jansson

I either never read this one or forgot most of the story, or maybe it's shorter in the comic strip versions? It's been so long. The beginning and ending seemed familiar.

I really love Moominmamma just relentlessly adopting anyone who needs a mother.

willaful She is my ideal Mother. My mom's too. 😁 3w

Little Kangaroo | Guido Van Genechten

I saw this story today on Facebook when I was scrolling through my newsfeed and it inspired today‘s haiku.

Doodlebug the baby kangaroo
holding on to his teddy bear for comfort
because he lost his mama

Welcome Little One | Sandra Magsamen

Proud to share that I have a new reader in the house - Beatrice Lynn arrived on June 5 weighing 7 lbs, 13 oz. Am enamored with her and can‘t wait to introduce her to books! For now though, we‘re focused on basic survival of the newborn phase and I‘m on a reading hiatus 😅 Hoping to at least get through some audiobooks soon!

Reggie Congratulations!!! One time I babysat a 2month old for my friend who needed a date night with her bf. I took Wendy‘s cause I thought I was gonna eat it. 4 hours later that food was still there. My first thought was: keep baby alive. Like I couldn‘t leave him on their king size bed because what if that night was the night he learned to rollover off the bed. What if I stepped out and an owl crashed through the window and snatched him up. lol 👇🏼 1mo

Reggie I could never be a parent. Good luck! She‘s a cutie. 1mo

Backyard Fairies | Phoebe Wahl

pick

Cute book and even cuter illustrations. This book is about a girl trying to find the fairies since she knows they are for real. I love the hidden fairies throughout the book and of course the rhymes as well.
