It has colors on it.  And pictures of a kitty cat.  It has brown on it.  I flashed it on there with my flashlight.  The End.  by WillMy favorite story is a rocket.  Space shuttle makes fire and smoke.  Water is in the rocket.  Rockets fly!  And rockets fly into the night.  3-2-1 Blast off!  Rockets re-enter.  The End.  by Ben

The Bowling Alley by Ben

We goed bowling in the car.  There were no bowling shoes.  That was a bummer.  Bowling is rolling balls fast down the lane.  The pins make the balls crash!

Will’s Story

We went in the R.V.  And we picked stuff up the top.  Daddy drived the R.V. and we tooked it home.  We got valentines.  We made them.  The End.  by Will

South Carolina Snow by way of California…

Aunt Mary sent a huge package from California.  There were plenty of cool toys within.  They were but a passing fancy stacked up next to the non-toy toy, of course.  I panicked at first when I saw the packing peanuts.  My first instinct was to not let one stray puff out of the box, close it up and hide it in the garage as quickly as possible, before anyone got any bright ideas.  Then Ben said “it’s like snow!”.  And I remembered that I, once upon a time, encouraged mess-making as a living back when I taught preschool.  So, I told my inner neat freak to take a hike, and we played in the snow!

In addition to the jumping, running, sliding, throwing, whooping and hollering, there were “snow plows”,

burying the baby,

and making snow angels, of course.

And then, we cleaned it all up.  Just like preschool.  La.

So, thanks Aunt Mary, for the California snow.

Oh, yes, and for the great toys, too. 

Baby loves her new bed.
