SEE! SEE!
I had a wonderful treat waiting for me in the mail today…
A surprise from Aloysius son!
It was addressed to Me and the kids so I waited patiently until they were all home and we opened it together!
It came in a very special envelope that looked like a special treasure box!
We opened it together and the big kids yelled “A THREE HUMP CAMEL!”
In actuality it is a Humpalumpalaff, something John has painted and I have admired repeatedly!
This is the first one, that he posted awhile ago.
It has always put me in mind of the book, Everyone Poops by Taro Gomi…
I have read the book at least a hundred times to my children… ”A one hump camel leaves a one hump poop. A two hump camel leaves a two hump poop… Just kidding! “ It only follows that a three hump camel leaves a three hump…
John has sent us our very own to hang and admire and we LOVE IT!
Humpalumpalaff at Sea
(psst… notice the little guy with the mustache!)
WE LOVE IT!

Love
LOVE
IT!
Thank you Al-son!

That is so sweet and I know what you mean about that book. I’ve read it so many times–do you have The Gas we Pass? That was a big hit at my house, too.
The paintings are great.
