Perfect Post

The Original Perfect Post Awards 07.08

Today I would like to nominate “Lonestar” for the perfect post award hosted by Lindsay at “Suburban Turmoil” and Kimberley at “Petroville.”

Her post on her blog “3 Running in Circles,” and “Everyday Adventures” is called “Can you name all the 43 Presidents?”

For me this is a perfect post [and also a video!] because it illustrates the amazing potential of children, any and all of them. I doubt very much, even if I happened to be a very good American, that could also achieve this feat.

Anyone interested in hearing me recite the Kings and Queens of England?

Pop along and test your skills, I won’t tell on you if you miss a few, or more.

Cheers dears

    When I was 11, someone got married… and I have a magazine…. just happens to list all of the family tree in the back pages. It’s buried, tucked away… but I could cheat and find it.

    First came William, then a second William
    Henry, Stephen, then a second Hank
    Next was Richard called the Lion-Hearted …

    etc., etc.

    All together Kings and Queens of Ennnnng-land!

    I’d be too embarrassed. Hey, at least I’m honest!

    Since my stroke, I do well enough to remember my own name! ;o)
