Calendar Fun

Have you ever googled special days and weeks for a particular month? There are quite a few sites that list celebrations for different weeks of the month as well as for nearly every day of the month. When checking out April, I was excited to find days for recognizing librarians, taking your child to work day, poetry day, astronomy day, and pet day, just to name a few. Another site listed the jewel and flower for the month. I made a list of a few of my favorites, matching them with the talents of members of our Boomers and Beyond team.


April’s Jewel is the Diamond

Fantastic!
April is such an excieting month. With the earth giving birth one again. From the splendid colors, to sound of the wind, and the sing song of insectics and creatures.
What wonderful items you have chosen from etsy shops!
