It's hard to find two and a half lines to say about six words! I'm sure you enjoyed this, your best New Year, thanks for sharing. Good luck

Deb, this is full of warmth and affection. I miss babies! Haven't been around them in a while. This six-word can be tricky. Good luck!

Thanks, Nora. I didn't really have a chance to miss babies for too long. My youngest was only eleven when my oldest presented us with our first grandbaby. She's now four (almost five) and we have two grandsons, fourteen-months and three-months. WE HAVE BABIES! Let me know if you eve want to borrow one for the night ... (LOL) They don't live here, but they're always here during the evening. I love them, love having them around, but I'm getting a little old for this! Thanks for reading, Deb

we used to have many too in the family. you know there 11 of us, but no one gave birth this year. There was one year when my mother was rewarded with four grandchildren and two great grandchildren! all of them are five now. have a great time with yours. :)

Thanks for hosting the contest! Great idea, and lots of fun. I've never done this form of poetry before, and was challenged by my sister to join in after she did so. Grateful to both of you, Deb

Thank you, Marcia. Wish I could produce some of that artwork! There are some very talented people on that site. Really enjoying looking at their work. Appreciate the thumbs up on the 'story', Deb

reply by Minglement on 08-Jan-2009

You're so welcome! I want to get back to more artwork, again. I do graphic arts (did the covers for Famished Heart and Gravity Sucks!, and have the cover for 'Tangled Webs' almost polished), but want to play with sketching and maybe painting fairies. And making more Teddy Bears. And more quilting. I'll never be bored. Unless I lose my eyesight. That could be a problem...

Take care and let me hear from you abot Orion. M.

I get 7 words - no reason why mama wouldn't count?? It's adorable and I'm not about to dock a star or anything, but with some reviewers, you never know!

And yes ... I can count to 7! Had to learn to do that to teach kindergarten! Duh. Thanks for catching such a blatent mistake. It has been fixed. Thanks also for the review, Deb

reply by adewpearl on 06-Jan-2009

you go, girl, count to 7 and then count back down to 1 backwards - bet you could even get to 10!! LOL

"Mamama!" Hugs my legs, then ... baby kisses!

It's kind of difficult to review a six word story, but it is a story. Great picture.

Thanks Fred. I agree. Tough to rate when the piece is shorter than most morning greetings! Thanks for reading, Deb

Dear Deb,

This says it all! As a grandmother of three little girls, I have been there and it is heaven! Love the artwork, and the story in six words is a neat concept...but you capture it well here.

Peace, L

Thank you L. Being a grandma is so wonderful, isn't it? I have a 4 year old g-daughter and g-sons that are 14- and 3-months. Boy, does my daughter have her hands full! But I sure don't mind helping out ... I get paid in hugs! Thanks again, Deb
