The Cat in the Hat on My Bus!?
On Tuesday the morning preschool class came out to the buses with kitty whiskers painted on their faces and a black dot on their nose. They informed us that each one of them was the Cat in the Hat. Only two of them were going on my bus. I told them, "As long as we don't bring Thing One and Thing Two on the bus, we should be fine. J found this amusing, but at least he agreed.
What else has been going on, on the bus? J (a take homer) and B (a take to preschooler) like to play rock, paper, scissors. They were having problems figuring it out one day, so I helped them. They now like to play it with me. Their favorite seems to be scissors, especially if someone else ends up with paper (they enjoy pretending to cut the paper). They also find it amusing when we each end up with something different from each other, as this means no one wins, but they don't really lose either.😊

Current Projects
In a large family, life can get busy. In the midst of it all, I'm trying to take the time to work on projects and learn new skills. If I can do this while spending time with my sisters, so much the better.
I've decided to separate the things I'm working on into two different categories: 1) Projects: this will mainly be used when the project is based on skills that I'm more familiar with. And 2) new skills.
Projects I'm working on:
The Ruby Doll by Doorposts: This is a kit my younger sisters have for making pocket sized dolls. (I'll be helping them with this.)
Grandmother's Hope Chest series: The Running Rooster by Rebekah Wilson (out of print). This is a story of a girl who is learning hand sewing skills. As you read the story, you make the same project they are making (a potholder).
New skills I'm learning:
How to knit. Abigail is helping me where I need it and we are using Teach Yourself to Knit by Leisure Arts. I hope to eventually be able to make the shawl in Training Our Daughters to be Keepers at Home by Mrs. Craig (Ann) Ward.
How to write poetry I will be using the book The Roar on the Other side by Suzanne U. Rhodes.
