Wood Peckers
I know I’m late on my column, but I’ve been so busy this month with work, remodeling, and school. I was sitting here when I noticed a wood pecker in the tree, outside my window. He was so pretty! It made me think of a story Aunt Sue told me. She says that she used to hate going to school. The boys would have to bribe her into going. One day Aunt Edith was over at their house and she gave her opinion on Aunt Sue going to school. She said that Aunt Sue should go to school and feel lucky that she even got the option of going. Well, that wasn’t what Aunt Sue wanted to hear. She got so mad that she blurted out, “Shut your mouth, you red headed pecker wood!”. I don’t know about you, but I thought that was pretty funny.

Katherine, I can just hear Mary Sue saying that. Good story.
