I might have messed up on this one too. Is this a yellow-jacket or is it a wasp? Either way, they are mean and don't die when they sting you, so I don't like them.

"Yolanda's Story"
by Kathy Matthews
Yolanda Young loved yellow. Her hair was yellow, her car was yellow, her house was yellow, and most of her clothes were yellow. So was her itsy bitsy teeny weenie yellow polka dot bikini. In fact, Yolanda was the reason that Bryan Hyland even wrote his song by that name. He used to watch her as she tanned in the yard, yackity-yacking on her yellow phone and thumbing through her yearbook. That young man thought that she looked yummy, yet awfully yellow.
Yesterday, Yolanda was yawning when a yellow-jacket landed on the yams she was eating. Thinking quickly, she yelled, grabbed a yardstick and smashed that yellow-jacket back into yesteryear and yon. Her dog yipped at the splattered yams, which met yeah, this yield looks good!
The End.

I yelped with giggles at this yummy little story! P.S.-That's what I call a yellow jacket! Nasty things!
ReplyDeleteMe thinks it is a yellow jacket. Nothing you want to argue with.
ReplyDeleteReally cute yellow story.
Yellow jackets and wasps, and hornets, who cares? They are all vicious and sting something ferocious!I like the way you have incorporated all your April themes, and the itsy , bitsy, yellow, polka-dot bikini added the frosting on the cake after your creative tale.
ReplyDeleteDid you notice how "The End" lined up perfectly with the bikini bottom? Did you plan that or did you just get lucky? HA~
ReplyDeleteYellow Jackets are REALLY yucky!
ReplyDeleteLoved your "Y" tale and of course the alphabet pages from the Oregon Alphabet book.
Thanks Everybody ... glad to know that I didn't mess up on the species ID after all. Wendy, that is funny, nope I guess I just got lucky ... plus the video arrow points right to her "end", lol.
ReplyDeleteA great colour, Yellow! Yes this itsi bitsi was a hit and they have become so much more itsi bitsi's. Absolutely agree with your Motto "celebrate the positive".
ReplyDeleteI love your Yellow post. Just listening the Brian Hyland brightens my day.
ReplyDeleteMy yellow post was with the 'X' post...hence my 'Yesteryear'
