It's Only in Your Head You Feel Left Out

"See the piggy,/See the puddle,/See the muddy little puddle./See the piggy in the middle/Of the muddy little puddle." from The Piggy in the Puddle by Charlotte Pomerantz


Saturday Scavenger Shots, yo! What up? I chose this week's word, MIDDLE, because...I'm not sure. I think I probably had our new Middle School area at the library on my mind. Apparently this is our hot new demographic that I kind of wish the Admins would just shut up about...but don't let me get all negative here! The MIDDLE can be a good thing, as I shall demonstrate here :)

Here is my MIDDLE child, Social Animal. He is shown here in the MIDDLE of a hiking adventure.

Here is my oldest child's MIDDLE child, Love Bug. She is also shown in the MIDDLE of a hiking adventure. You'd think we were the most hikingest family ever, based on the past couple of Saturday Scavenger Shot posts....

Anyway, I know MIDDLE children are supposed to be in a notoriously difficult position, but these two manage it will enthusiasm and grace! They are the forces of balance in our lives....so yay for the MIDDLE!

I hope you find yourself in the MIDDLE of something nice this weekend. xox

PS -Tara, you're it again, if you're into it.

I was the middle child for quite a while until my parents both re-married and added a bunch of kids to the family.

Almost every middle child I know has some issues. I imagine it can be tough...but I'm glad your kid, grandkid seem to take it in stride.

Wow, your MIDDLE child is up high, over the city! Very cool photo and I'm kind of nervous for him there! Lol.

Thank you for taggin' me, yo! The next word is "music".

Secret: And look at you! You are a very well balanced and, by what I see, happy person. Yay for the middle!

Silver: I think every position in the family can come with its set of baggage. But middle kids are kind of famous for it!

Tara: Yes, just looking at the picture give me that high anxiety feeling :) I guess he doesn't share my fears.
Great word! Thank you!!!
