data:[...] Base64Happy Halloween from Pirate Gilly and Butterfly Tutu who are excited for their chick-n-treats! 🏴‍☠️🦋 We’ll see all you fairy princesses and goblin trolls when the sun sets. Our porch light is on and Lady Mc-Bones is suited up. I promise only sweets. Be safe out there. 🍬👻 xoS
data:[...] Base64I met @levar.burton last night. Instead of hello, I said, “I’m going to try to refrain from singing to you...” And then promptly sang, “Butterfly in the skyyyyyy, I can go twice as highhhhh...” To which he graciously responded, “You did not refrain and I’m glad you didn’t.” I couldn’t help myself, I told him. My heart was too full of gratitude. The first time I met LeVar, I was a little Puerto Rican “Army brat” sitting in her school teacher momma’s lap. We were in Stuttgart, Germany where my family had been stationed, and it was one of the only English TV programs. I remember watching the show and being rapt with everything from the rainbow cartoon to the charismatic LeVar who felt more like a friend than a host. My mom kindled my personal love of reading and writing, but @levar.burton opened the portal of communal book sharing. Unquestionably, he was a guide on my journey to becoming an author. So, thank you, @levar.burton, for being part of my literacy family for over forty years and sharing your reading ministry with the world. You’ve been a light to generations. Finally meeting in person was beyond all I could’ve asked or imagined. Thank you also to the incredible students, faculty, and staff of @guilfordcollege @guilfordcollegebryanseries who put on one of the most unforgettable evenings of the year. xoS 🦋🌈📖
data:[...] Base64Heaps of birthday blessings to the endlessly lovely Mother Dolores Hart born today! If you aren’t familiar, I highly recommend all the films she stars in, beginning with her knockout debut “Loving You” with Elvis Presley. Fun fact: She gave Elvis his first on-screen kiss. 💋🎥 Check @tcm’s schedule as many of her movies aren’t available on streaming platforms. There’s also an @HBO documentary “God Is the Bigger Elvis” and her memoir “The Ear of the Heart.” She might not have any social media or ties to the outside world (Benedictine monastic vows as such), but she feels our good wishes in spirit. Happy birthday, M. Dolores! I’ll always be loving you. ♥️ xoS [Photo credits: media PR shots except for the last one, which I took on a visit. 😇]
