He never scared me. The story was this man was trapped in a cave with a pin hole sized hole allowing light for him to read & write by, but he had to move the book each sentence at a time. This is what I remember, I don’t know if that is the important part or even correct part. But it’s the part that my memory holds when I was told as a little girl. I thought even though he is suffering & alone, he can still read stories. As you know, a good story can take you out of your time & plant you in another, a book can be a time machine, a book can stop time. A book can make you understand who you are or who you want to be. I never watch tv…sounds snobby, but I used to, but my husband wanted to flip channels during commercial & then would want to start watching something thats almost done. GRRRRR! So he watches t.v. on the couch. I go to my room snuggle in & I’m gone.

We took about 15-20 square sheets & misted them with water, piling them on top of one another. Then we found two simple stamps, the cat and the 4 tulips & we pressed it into the wet paper, leaving behind an imprint of your stamp. I think my mom added the color later, maybe with marker. It’s really fun for people to make scrap books & such. But Mom & I have little attention span & moved on. “done that, WHAT’S NEXT!”
