My friend Susiecool and I wrote new songs that we will put in this web-site in the future.  I am a lifetime member of Weightwatchers and I always refer this great program to friends looking to get to a new low in their life when it comes to weight control.  Weightwatchers allows you to enjoy all of your favoirte foods, helps you to keep count of your calorie intake easily by calculating a point system for each individual.

This is a system that I highly recommend.

See you next time …. Sheila Dixon

I found a few great Christmas Poems I like and wanted to share them with all of you.  Much success to all of you in the new year!  Sheila Dixon (Childrens’ Book Author).

I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph. – Shirley Temple

I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. – Charles Dickens, Ebenezer Scrooge, A Christmas Carol

I wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it every month. – Harlan Miller (Better Homes and Gardens)

If Ifs and Buts were candies and nuts, we’d all have a merry Christmas. – Author Unknown

If there is no joyous way to give a festive gift, give love away. – Author Unknown

Instead of being a time of unusual behavior, Christmas is perhaps the only time in the year when people can obey their natural impulses and express their true sentiments without feeling self-conscious and, perhaps, foolish. Christmas, in short, is about the only chance a man has to be himself. – Francis C. Farley

It comes every year and will go on forever. And along with Christmas belong the keepsakes and the customs. Those humble, everyday things a mother clings to, and ponders, like Mary in the secret spaces of her heart. – Marjorie Holmes

It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air. – W. T. Ellis

It was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Tiny Tim observed, “God bless us, every one!” – Charles Dickens

As you can see I enjoy writing children’s stories and original songs.

I am looking for a publisher to work with me to make more books. I am running out of  ”Connor and Katy Dinosaur Go Places”.  I have other books that need to be published too.

I’d love to get feedback from you about the songs at this site. My co-writer SusieCool and I have been making songs together since 2007.  I write most of the lyrics and I occasionally come up with a melody too.

Thank You for stopping by!
