Impromtu Craft


Miriam woke up with a sick tummy today so all our plans were changed. No morning walk, no gymnastics, no friends, no shopping. It's cold outside too.

Miriam remembered seeing this craft in the American Girl magazine we looked through at the library a few days ago. She also remembered that I had said we could make them "someday" and found the empty bottles. We hung them in the windows of her house so that when her friend open the windows they get a fishy surprise!

Miriam colored for 1 1/2 hours, watched Dragon Tales 1/2 hour, listened to one of her fairy stories on CD 1 hour, made Bub giggle for 1/2 hour, made me play pretend games for what seems like 3 hours, took a bath for 1 hour, I am now resorting to a movie.

Thank Heaven for the Aristocats.
