* Word Nerdiness: I found a great new word. A Flaneur is one who wanders without destination. Let's all be Faneurs this week.
* Great Read: Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Granbenstein. This is a fantastic read aloud for second through fifth graders. If you have a child in your life, this would make a great family read aloud.
* Funniest Moment: I was walking my class to lunch the other day and my kids got a case of the giggles. As my Tyler, who had had a very snotty nose all day, went into the lunch room he laughed and said, "Mrs. Lawson. I had a little giggle and it made me fart out my nose."

* Anticipating: This weekend Jeffrey is taking me to Tulsa for the weekend to shop and see "Chicago". I'm pretty excited!

I hope it is warm on your week-end trip. I love your greatest gift. What a cute little girl. I am sure you hear all kinds of funny things at school.
Best wishes to you and I love your Friday Faves. Love Jeanne
I smiled at the photo, giggled at the funniest moment, felt prodded by Prolific Living and teared up at My Best Gift :).
Your weekend sounds like it will be wonderful, Relyn.
Enjoy every moment!
I would LOVE to see Chicago live! Have a wonderful time!
Dogs are very good flaneurs. :)
Have a great weekend. Smiled at the quote.
Sounds like a fun weekend planned! Love the photo and what a lot of inspiration in your post. Have you read The Flaneur by Edmund White? If not, it's about Paris and I think you'll like it. Hugs to you, dear Relyn! xx
Just LOOK at that fabulous face! Sounds like tons of fun!

Sweet picture of Sloane.
Have never heard the word, flaneur, but yes!
Thoroughly enjoyed The Magic Horse, the quotes, your Best Gift. Hugs to you!
"A far that came out my nose"...such perfect potty humor from a young boy! I hope your night out seeing Oklahoma was terrific.
OOp...meant to type "fart"!!
Well I love that quote by Hannah, I shall remember it and try to paint myself a different colour when I am blue :)
I'll have to see if my husband's library has that book yet--sounds like a good one!
I'm a fan of flaneurs (and flaneuses), too!
Hope you loved "Chicago"!
The Flaneur Guide is an awesome find :) Thanks so much for sharing!
