Can Five be found?

August 2, 2019 By Annette1 4 Comments

Click here to go to my disclosure policy.

So I’m sitting here tonight pondering this word five and thinking… what?   What do I do with this word five.  

Shall I talk about five things about myself?

Five things I’m learning from God?

Five homeschooling questions?

It’s a tough word.   Can five be found?

Can five be found?

Can five be found?

Five,
It’s a rather tough word.
Nothing comes to mind with this middle number five.
Can Five be found?   Hmm… Five….
Smack in the middle twixt one and ten.
Well, actually if I think about it 5.5 is smack in the middle. 🙂

Today to The Learning House
My son and I went.
To talk latin, math and French.
Away with ideas we left talking much.
Considering tests, talking gaps,
And shipping to The States.

Did you know I have five siblings?
Two boys, three girls and one boy followed.
Guess where I was in the mix?
Like number five (or rather 5.5)
I was smack in the middle!
Not the easiest place to be.

Tonight with mom a conversation had
Talking about the growth in my lad
I mentioned his help I needed this morn.
Checking a bunny one was five who was born
Three in the litter are growing just fine
But one dead, and one struggling truth must be mine.

Five pets to recall in my life.
Rascal – a cocker cross a fun little dog. Childhood pup.
Jack – Domestic short-hair black cat… Smart as a whip
TORS – Gave cat away when marriage came along. Some day I will replace him.
Lady – Fun dog, defender of my life.
Sassy – All mine, looked only to me, she had my heart. Broke it in two.

Considering God some truths to remember.
Consider him first.
Remember his Sacrifice.
See his unrelenting love.
Take note of God’s unwavering Holiness.
This highest of calling he places on our lives.

can five be found?

I guess in the end, five can be found.  Family, bunnies, schooling, pets and faith.  Five is a search, and I suppose not quite the middle.  🙂 

What five things can you tell me about?

It's my birthday, again
