busy

Bustle, bustle, rush, rush, I forgot my backpack, were are my shoes?
That has been life at our house recently, especially on Wednesday mornings. (That is the day we go to our homeshool group-from 8:45am to 3:00pm-or something like that.) But in the last few days it has been raining constantly, day and night. It is extremely cozy at nights though, with the wind howling and the rain pitter-pattering on the roof, while I am curled up under the blankets on my bed reading. my Mom thought of a good way to keep the younger kids quiet while they have to say inside while it is raining. She brought over the dollhouse that was hers when she was little from the storage shed. Lately if you can't find Mary Autumn anywhere, look in our room, and sure enough she will be laying on the floor in front of the dollhouse, absorbed in a game of her own imagination. One time I was reading my book, and I overheard part of her conversation-
Apparently the dollhouse couple are getting married-

"do you want to marry this man?"
"yes"
"do you want to marry this lady?"
"yes"
"you can kiss the bride"

I have no idea how she picked that up, but it was really cute. It would be fun to just sit there sometime and listen to her game.
We watched the Inauguration and I thought that it was very interesting. We pretty much had it on all day, and after the Inauguration he went to lunch, a parade, and in the evening he showed up at 10 of the dances they held!
Well I was up late reading my book last night and I'm tired so I'd better get to bed. Bye.
