No school again! Monday was MLK Day and I stayed with Meema. Tuesday was a snow day and even Mama didn't go to work so I stayed home with her. Wednesday school was closed AGAIN and the road up to Meema and Grumpy's was so icy that me and Daddy had to walk up. I took my short cut and Meema saw me coming and took a picture through the window. Daddy was on the road and he was yelling You can't go that way. But I did
I had some homework to do so after pancakes, I got started.
There was a thing about being a good citizen at school.
Grumpy said he would help but I could do it myself. I think I am a good citizen at school.
I did lots of stuff. Me and Meema played Go Fish. She won one and I won one.
Then I organized the shelves where my games and art supplies and stuff are. First, I took everything out. There were some crumpled pieces of paper that Meema tried to throw away, but I grabbed them from her and put them in a box. When Meema fussed, I told her I would use them for crafts.
Do you see how nice it looks now? I found lots of stuff I'd forgotten about.
Like this book. I worked on it while I ate lunch.
It is a pirate story but you have to fill in the blanks. I named the pirate ship The Purple Octopus.
I had forgotten about my paper dolls! There are two girls. One has yellow hair and is a princess. The other has dark hair and is a rock star.
They have lots of clothes and while Meema was cutting out some more, I got to work making houses for them.
The princess's house is red and her bathroom is pink with a gold sink and a white toilet. the toilet paper holder is blue
Her kitchen has high shelves with cans of soup on them.
In the princess's living room is a big pink and gold couch. The rock star has a black house and most of her furniture is gray because those are the colors she likes. She does have some blue walls.It was a good day. I ate some of the chocolate chip pumpkin bread we made on Monday, and I read a bunch of books. Meema was surprised that I could read the word PERSEVERANCE, but I told her it was another virtue, like PATIENCE. And I do know what it means--to keep on trying even if something is hard to do.You are something else, says Meema.And I did a little vacuuming.
