Morning, sweetnesses. It's Monday and you know what that means - it's time to be Blue!! I'm talking about a happy Blue Monday hosting by our ever smiling Sally at http://smilingsally.blogspot.com/ . Make sure you go and visit her today and you'll see all the Blue Ones participating in this most happy occasion.
Well, be Blue anyway and I'll hopefully have a story to tell you soon!
Well, a few of you were concerned because I didn't tell you a story, so I'm back and here goes...
My Mom and Dad took me to church and Sunday School for the first time when I was three years old. I had had an encounter with death and they decided right there and then to start living for the Lord and to raise me in a Christian home. Well, my first time to go to Sunday School was so exciting, I'm told. The teacher asked if any of the children would like to sing a little song about Jesus.
Well, being the shy child that I was, I stood up and said I would sing a song. She said, oh how marvelous, our little visitor is going to sing us a song. I stood up proudly and sang "Davy Crockett" king of the old frontier, for you oldies! She let me finish my most gorgeous song and then said, that was so nice, but do you know another song about Jesus? I said I did and in my most gorgeous three year old voice sang "Here Comes Peter Cottontail". See, I've always been musical.
We we moved to another state when I was thirteen and that little church gave us a going away party. My kindergarten Sunday School teacher told my mother that story! She could have shamed me or made me feel really badly, but she was just a sweet Godly woman and I believe she handled the situation beautifully! I was a hoot way back then.
Okay, now there's your rabbit story, Dear Ones!! ;)
I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
Rabbitt in the Pea Patch
Well, Scratch on the hillside raking up hay,
Rabbitt in the pea patch eating all day.
Get my dog, let's go hunting,
Get that rabbit out of town.
Well, Scratch on the hillside raking up leaves,
Rabbit in the pea patch eating all day.
here, here
Well, Scratch on the hillside raking up leaves,
Rabbit in the pea patch eating all day.
get that rabbitt out of town
Get my dog, let's go hunting,
Get that rabbit out of town.
Well, Scratch on the hillside raking up leaves,
Rabbit in the pea patch eating all day.
~sung by Uncle Dave Macon

No Story?!? I'm bummed.
ReplyDeleteLove your bunnies, though...

They are adorable...and look how amazingly well they match the wall paper! And we love your stories...but you get a break just this once!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute bunnies. I will expect a story next time (it's ok with me if you make it up!) laurie
ReplyDeleteLove rabbits, particularly ones as pretty as these. We got a gorgeous Note Song though and thats counts for a lot. Too sweet! That's ok about there being No story - the next one will be even better. Sometimes there is no story anyway. Have a great Monday!
ReplyDeleteWHAT!!! No Monday story?? girl are you sick?? is that mess in the entry getting to you or what?? You could have made one up for me girl..tell me about Peter Cotton tail...hugs and smiles Gloria
ReplyDeleteI love your bunnies. I had to go back and look when I saw that Nikki said it matches the wall paper. It was one of those 'I made you look kind of things". But this time it was for a good reason. Happy Blue Monday!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty bunnies; most unusual colors. I love the poem. Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI actually do miss the story! Those rabbits are cute.

PS
When you get time, I gave you an award :).
That is a gorgeous story Shelia. And guess what? You are still a hoot now. I can just imagine you as a little one singing those songs. It would have been a brave thing to do as well. What a lovely woman she was too. Gorgeous memory. Thanks for your story, now you are completely off the hook.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Shelia
ReplyDeleteI love those bunnies! Oh my. They are so sweet and you know how I love bunnies too. Their pattern is soooo pretty.
Loved your story too. *s*. I can just picture you Shelia standing their confident as can be singing. How nice that your teacher allowed you to finish. I hope you learned some songs about Jesus soon after that. Oh my.
Have a lovely day.
Judi
See, you have spoiled us to a Shelia story. :) Love your twin rabbits. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteHugs again, J.
Oh Shelia...I can just see you standing up and singing your little heart out...haha...and wasn't your teacher wonderful not to embarrass you! ;-) Bo
ReplyDeleteHello dear one, I adore your rabbits and I am glad I visited later and was the lucky one who read your story. It made me laugh Sheila. You were definitely musical at a very young age.
ReplyDeleteLove...Jeanne
What a sweet story. Having a song in your heart is a blessing. I'm sure your Sunday School teacher recognized that. And it gave her a funny story to share with others all these years.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you added this precious story! How cute that you wanted to sing those songs for your class. What an introduction to your new Sun. school class. I bet the other children enjoyed Davy Crockett and Here Comes Peter Cottaintail, and it sounds like your teacher thought it was precious too. Love your story, as always. laurie
ReplyDeleteLOL Blogland demands a great dreal from you; they don't give you a day off! LOL I'll bet you were a cute one! That was a wise teacher who allowed you self-expression and then taught you to love Jesus. Now, your bunnies are precious (hmmm, where have I heard that word?) and they match your wallpaper! You are an amazing decorator! Happy Blue Monday!
ReplyDeleteThats so much better girl!! loved the story..now don't go scaring us again without a story..Its would be Shelia without our story from you girl...hugs and smiles gloria
ReplyDeleteI love the bunnies and the sweet story!
ReplyDeleteThose are the cutest bunnies!!! I just LOVE them!
ReplyDeleteShelia! I love the Sunday School story. :0) That was a wonderful teacher. Your little bunnies are very sweet...
ReplyDeleteCute bunnies, and cuter story. Thanks for sharing both.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday!
YEAH!!! I am sooooo happy and what a wonderful story.. LOVED it.. So cute and so like a little Sheilia... Love you

Happy Blue Monday to you from Toronto, Canada. Loved your Sunday school story. I remember that song about Davey Crocket and used to sing it too. That pair of rabbits--are they English? Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteBlue Monday? I just signed up for pink Saturday! Well, I'll just have to catch up!
ReplyDeleteI love your song story! I can just hear the giggles!
Hi Shelia - The bunnies are cute and I'm glad that you added the great story. Happy Blue Monday.
ReplyDeleteSweetie
I must tell you..I loved your story. What a smile it caused. "Way back in the day"..I once stood up on stage and gave my rendition of the song..The Pigs Got the Measels. I still kinda cringe when I laugh about it now..:) Happy Blue Monday and have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteHi Sheila.. Your story today was wonderful and I just love your beautiful rabbits. They are so cute. Hope you have a wonderful week and a Happy Blue Monday!!
ReplyDeleteLove the bunnies! Your story is funny and your Sunday School teacher knew just what to do. Kids do say the darndest things as Art Linkletter knows so well!
ReplyDeleteThis story tickled me into laughter. Imagining you adorably singing whole heartily in front of everyone. This teacher probably reflects back with a smile on her face too.
ReplyDeleteSweet Wishes,
Sara
What a sweet story! It reminds me of my little sister. When she was 5 she was singing at a Christmas service in church. Her Sunday school class sang "Away in a Manger". My mom told her to remember to sing nice and loud so everyone could hear her. Well she actually didn't sing - she SHOUTED the words. The whole congregation couldn't help but laugh...
ReplyDeleteOh Sheila, you know how I feel about cute little rabbits. They are adorable! And I LOVE you story today! I bet you were great singing your little three year old "Jesus" songs. I have a story on my blog today too, but I wasn't nearly as cute.
ReplyDelete*hugs*
Love the rabbits and love the Sunday School story. It reminds me of a story my niece told. She asked her daughter what she learned in S.S. She said she learned the song B-I-N-G-O Bingo was his name-0.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh of the Blue Monday.
Charlotte
Oh, those bunnies are just too cute. Have a great week. Happy Blue Monday.
