That’s true but I often find these little objects beyond endearing. I have a small green cloth frog I saw lying on a towpath over a couple of days. On the second day I picked it up and moved to a wall where it would be easier to see and on about the fifth day, realising no one was going to claim it, I took it inside and placed it in the bedroom window with some other small toy ducks and bears I thought might befriend it. It is now in charge of my marketing department. I’m not sure it does a very good job but no one has the heart to tell it that 🙂
Were it my unique Left Behind trove…. pens, reader eyeglasses & my keys! Some Left Behinders never Get Orderly.
Lovely post – new here, via Poetry Friday.
ah; the joy of teaching little ones. in a few years, they’ll be leaving behind keys, phones, and their accounting textbooks (I think the last one on purpose)
That’s not too much for week one. Do the kinder get more forgetful as the weeks go by?
