Just wondering ...

I am thinking about writing a children's book. Yes, I know that is way, way out there, but what is the worst they can say? Um, no thanks. Hey, it would be worth the effort.

I have discovered that I love blogging, and I know that it is very different than writing a book. But I am not talking about a novel, I am talking on the lines of an illustrated children's book. You know, something fun.

I was trying to sleep the other night and with Chuck the way his arm is right now, sleep doesn't come easily to either one of us. Anyway, I flipped my pillow over, and it twisted and turned and I couldn't get it right. 'Bout drove me up a wall. Finally I got it done, but by that time I was awake and had a time falling back to sleep. I think it eventually came to me, and I woke up much later.

Ok, so while fighting with this twisted pillow, it came to me, no, not sleep. But a book about a little boy that, basically, does the same thing. He tries to flip the pillow, but he keeps twisting it. I have a lot to think about with it, I have it all in my head, but getting it on paper is a different story. Or getting it out of my head and into the computer is a different story.

Ok, people, I want your opinion on this. Elaine and Johanna especially. If you think that it is silly, let me know. But I think it would be fun to try.
