so pretty and they make such pretty
things. We meet every Monday aft
ernoon. The verses which Lorena
wrote were very nice. The answer
to the first verse is Mole, the Sec
ond Mouse, the third Frog. This
afternoon / caught little mouse
and put it up my sleeve. When I
went to get it couldn't find it at all.

are stealing food from us. am as
