SOLSC: Vacation is Time - 26/31

The Slice of Life Story Challenge 
is hosted by the Two Writing Teachers.

Vacation is . . . Time

Time with my parents
and time with my husband and girls.

Time to rejuvenate
and time to forget worries.

Time to watch
and time to listen.

Time to talk
and time to laugh.

Time to walk
and time to relax.

Time to read
and time to ponder.

Time to write
and time to share.

Time is vacation
and the time comes to an end.

Until the next vacation.

    Ending vacations are sad and exciting. I am always sad to leave home and family and excited to return to my classroom to begin with fresh eyes and ears. It sounds like you had a very nice vacation and yes, are looking forward to the next one.

    I love the rhythm to your poem. It made me wish my vacation wasn't over.

    I like how you repeated the word time in your poem. I'm feeling a bit sad that my spring break is almost over!

{#sol15} deeper than beauty 8/31

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! I have twin four and a half -- almost five! -- year old daughters.  I try to be consciously aware of what I say and do in regards to my body image and self-esteem and also with their body image and self-esteem. First of all, because I don't want them to believe everything that society says is true.  Even if they don't fully understand it today.  In addition, because they are fraternal twin sisters, I want them to understand they are individuals with unique and different bodies that God created for each of them.   However, society -- including my loving family and friends -- tell a different story and harmlessly create a comparison war.   My girls constantly hear how beautiful, adorable, cute, fill-in-the-blank with any other
