Oh my goodness, Omaha! You're knocking me out. Thanks to Omaha Public Schools for bringing me in this week. Loved meeting all my new elementary school friends. What a nice welcome they gave me! Thanks, too, to the Omaha Public Library for hosting a fun gathering on Monday night, and to the Bookworm for providing books and hosting a book signing last night at their cute store.
I had a chance yesterday afternoon to sneak in a trip to Omaha's famous Joslyn Art Museum, where I saw the lovely Matisse painting (bottom row, center pic). But I've gotta say: I was even *more* impressed by a fifth-grade artist at Washington Elementary named Millie. Don't you love her drawing (bottom row, right pic)?
I needed that hat this week. It's cold here! But all the love made me feel warm inside. Thanks, Omaha! And to Mr. Keel and all my new pals at Wakonda Elementary, here's the picture I promised you. (Sorry it's so blurry! I was laughing too hard to hold my phone steady.)
