YELLOW!

sanibonani
(Zulu for hello, to multiple people)

translates to mean 'we see you',
and your response should be
"yebo", meaning 'yes'.

So happy you stopped by!
Today is simply a

YELLOW DAY!!

I think yellow is so cheerful and happy.
Too bad I can't type in yellow,
but you would be grumpy with me at the end of the blog if I did.

Instead, I will share yellow in photos,
paintings, rubber stamped cards, drawings...you get the idea!


Now yellow comes in many different shades.
And some unexpected things are shades of yellow,
like mermaids.
Who knew?

Well, it's that time again,
where I must say good bye,
until tomorrow.

Perhaps we will follow a path,
a yellow path,
and in time we will meet
to say hello!
