Nursery Rhymes


NURSERY RHYMES

So I was given this book of old Spanish nursery rhymes and the other night decided to read some of them to Sullivan. They all seemed like pretty typical little kid poems until I got to this one " I am pretty, I am my mother's pearl, if I soil my dress she will beat me." I would like to note that the introduction of this book says that these poems will bring comfort to children. Apparently comfort used to come with a whack to the head.
