This poem is so delicious! The simple rhymes, the lovely old-fashioned language, and the feisty attitude of Bad Bear! The only time I really remember being naughty was once when I would not let my mother cut my hair. I was about 7 and my hair had gotten very long. My mother only wanted to trip it, but I absolutely wouldn't give in and (like you, Anne) I made her chase me all over the neighborhood! Of course in the end, she and her scissors won out and I vividly remember thinking that it wasn't so bad after all. I smile now as I wonder why in the world this mattered so much to me!
Au yes dear Miss Alison! All about establishing independence when all our Mum's were doing was caring for us. Much appreciation this day for thinking about my kids and me chasing them all over the neighbourhood too. Wishing you a happy day ☀️🎵
Ohhh my—too adorable and wise for words. You always speak to us giving exactly what we need! A.A. Milne is a voice of great wisdom for me, still. Thank you, thank you dear sister!! So much love to you🙏🏼♥️
