Okay, this is Kate.
Have you ever eaten a mouse for dinner? You haven’t? Lucky. I haven’t either. Over the past 3 days we have caught 7 mice in our 4 traps. Dad and Paul get to dispose of them. It is so gross. This is not a food source or a hobby... it’s just a fact of living in a rainy country. Since it has rained a lot for a while the mice have been seeking shelter. Our garage door is hung crooked so they get in at the corners. Mom wants to put steel wool in the holes since mice hate this.
When Aimee and I went to the mail this morning there was a package for me. The dress I ordered with my Christmas money from Grandma had arrived. Guess what I did?
First I screamed...then I ran up to the house with it under my arm. I tried it on and it fits perfectly. Truly... like it was made for me... because it was. I am very happy about this and I told Dad on the phone that I want another one for my birthday. : ) Merry Christmas in February! And don’t forget a Happy New Year! : )
