Yesterday I went to Super Saturday at the Illinois State Museum. I did one of each project. The projects were a butterfly mailbox, a mailbox, a travel tic-tac-toe, and all of those three were made out of film canisters with punched holes in the lids and ribbon put through them. I got two pink ribbons and one blue ribbon. I made a tree out of a little paper bag and I decorated it with tissue paper. It's a redbud tree like the one in our yard. I colored two pictures on an Earth Day card. I colored it with crayons. I learned that Earth Day is every day. I glued garbage onto a big U.S. map that didn't have much on it. It was a collage project. I learned to save water, reuse and recycle everything I can, use both sides of paper, turn off the light when I'm not using it or when I'm not in the room.

I am getting into jump rope rhymes and I can jump rope better now. I wonder if I'll ever be better at it. I bet I will! Do you think I will? My favorite rhyme is right here: Cinderella dressed in yella, went downstairs to kiss her fella. How many kisses did she give? 1,2,3,4,5... Yesterday, I got to 7, but I messed up on the 8th one.

My mom went to a junk house and picked up some stuff for me. I am wearing some of it in this picture. She got me a makeup mirror with one side just a mirror, and one side a magnified mirror. I also got a white sequined purse, beaded fancy lady gloves, a blue cowgirl hat a little darker than the color of this writing with flowers around the brim. I also got a beaded cashmere angora sweater and a paddle ball.

My kitty Cozy is sick or something. He has a raw spot on his tail and he keeps licking it. He acts crazy at times, walking quickly around the house, jumping and then licking furiously. If he is still sick tomorrow, Daddy is going to take him to the vet.



These egg sandwiches say BOO!
