Marrying two of Adrienne's ideas

Adrienne, children's librarian extraordinaire, has given us some good suggestions about grammar, and we took her up on both of them. Several weeks ago, I got Schoolhouse Rock out of the library, and the girls loved it. Of course, we had to return it after a week so I got David to order it in our latest Amazon order.

Yesterday, I decided to take her up on her second suggestion and do Mad Libs, of which we have several lying around. No sooner did I call out for someone to give me an adjective than Ella started singing,
Adjectives are words you use to really describe things,
Handy words to carry around.


Guess Schoolhouse Rock really stuck! The new one came today and the girls are watching it.

Very successful day, yesterday.
