I pulled weeds in the turnip
patch in the morning till
it began to rain. Mamma
and I made icecream.
I pulled weeds in the turnip
patch till six oclock.
then I drove in the cows.
It looks like rain to night

Our 13th Anniversary. The boys made Watt and I breakfast in bed. Toast with apricot jam. Scrambled eggs with ham. Bacon even. Coffee. It was unexpected and overwhelmingly sweet. After much debate, it was decided to celebrate by picnicing at the skatepark. It was Tucker who compromised and gave up his desired zoo trip.
