Thanks for the Smiles... November Monthly Challenge Theme


November Monthly Challenge Theme:
Thanks for the Smiles

I hope everyone has a Happy November full of smiles because this month’s theme is “Thanks for the Smiles”!


Feature an item that has humor and makes one smile! Now would be the perfect time to honor that furry loved one who always made you smile or that lil furry who currently makes you smile; feature a yummy treat that makes your beloved “smile”; or just enter something that makes anyone smile!


Here are some fun examples...



Cat in a Bowl

Original ACEO Watercolor by CatCalls



The Dog House writes, “Much as I felt sorry for my dog, I did find it hard to keep a straight face when she returned from the vets wearing a satellite dish...”







Smile
by Cheryl Greear


SMILING is infectious, You catch it like the flu
When someone SMILED at me today,
I started SMILING too
I passed around the corner and someone saw my grin
When he SMILED, I realized I'd passed it on to him.
I thought about that smile, then realized its worth,
A single SMILE just like mine
could travel 'round the earth.
So if you feel a SMILE begin, don't leave it undetected.
