She was retired when my boys were small but she established a legacy of reading and love of books with them. One particular favorite for her was to recite the "Two Little Kitten's" poem when the boys would begin to argue. I too will have this poem framed with Ma's picture in it to give to my son's as a gift, just to help them remember her. My son’s great grandmother was a school teacher in the 1930′s.

Another one I would love to find goes; I had a funny dream last night while I was fast asleep, I dreamed I dug a great big hole, as deep as deep as deep. And suddenly I tumbled in and down I went and down, till all at once I found I'd come to queen potatoes town. Can anyone help? Please!

Can anyone help? Please!

Later she used to recite it to my Niece.My Niece is now expecting her first baby, and i have been trying to track down this poem for her, so she may recite it to her son.(she doesn't know I have been looking) I am going to have it printed and framed with Grandma's picture printed on the edge with 2 of her cats as kittens,all now have passed on.This should bring a tear and a happy memory, to my Niece Dana, who wishes Grandma could have met her son.
