A Shakespeare Twist

Stacy has been reading Romeo and Juliet in her English class. The other day she was given an assignment to write the letter that Tybalt sends to Romeo after Tybalt sees him at the Capulet's party. I think it is pretty interesting:

Dear Romeo,
Thou art an artless, boil-brained bladder. I am in a state of lightning-like rage. Thou snuckest into the Capulet party, and thou left unscathed. Thou art an abomination, you and all thy Montague-men alike! How did thoust find out about this party? Thou art a fool to think thoust could be welcomed. I desire to meet with thee, Romeo, and to smite thee until thou art no more. Thou shalt be pleading for my mercy upon our meeting. So take care of thy lumpish, half-faced wagtail, for when we meet again thou wilt have it no more.

Thy enemy forever,
Tybalt

A Fun Day at Ma's House

On Saturday afternoon, we watched Kate and Claire while Maria and Tim toured the hospital. The girls spent most of the time outside playing with the dog and Stacy. Peanut has finally learned to not be afraid of them. He really warmed up to Katelyn and even sat when she commanded him to. Usually he is very picky about who he chooses to obey! They also had a lot of fun making huge rock collections.
