In The Middle of Fall

"Everything is yellow
and red
and orange
all over
all around
right in the middle of Fall.

But remember it
because soon...
the yellow
and red
and orange
will be gone"

Today we read In the Middle of Fall by Kevin Henkes.  These words inspired us to find a way to remember the "yellow and red and orange all over all around" even after the world has changed to gray and then to white.  So, we made painted and glittered leaf prints to hang up in our playroom.  They will help us "remember it"!  Thank you, Kevin Henkes for your gentle reminder to us, to savor and then remember the beauty of fall.
