For Sale
One sister for sale!
One sister for sale!
One crying and spying young sister for sale!
I’m really not kidding,
So who’ll start the bidding?
Do I hear the dollar?
A nickel?
A penny?
Oh, isn’t there, isn’t there, isn’t there any
One kid that will buy this old sister for sale,
This crying and spying young sister for sale?
I love this poem and its meaning this weekend is two-fold. My sister, Aprille, was here this weekend to help us celebrate our mommy's birthday. It has been a fun & crazy weekend and was hard to say good-bye to her. The poem is one we used to say as kids, and probably meant sometimes, but as adults I sure wish we lived closer and could play more often. We had a little get-a-away, just us three and then enjoyed conference weekend together eating a LOT of yummy food and burning lots of calories laughing.
Aside from the poem reminding me of her, it also reminds me of the fundraiser-which is in a month- and auctioning off the fabulous items, goods and such! I promised to start posting some of the auction items up so you could start getting an idea of what will be at the carnival, so here are a few. I am still learning how to embed these videos and text to explain each item. Sorry! Comment or FB with questions. :)
