White Day

I. Love. White. Day. Mostly because of the story we read, but also because I own a lot of white clothing :) We started the day by reading "Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes." If you haven't ever heard of Pete the Cat, you need to head to the library and check him out! After we read the story we made made our own Pete the Cats!




Pete taught us no matter what you step in keep walking along and singing your song because it's all good!

Have a great weekend!

Love,
Mrs. Koscielniak
