Knitting

Hey! It's Buttercup again! I just thought of another random thing I'd like to write about.
Wildflower, Klick, and I recently started knitting. Klick and I were at a sewing store (I got a $20 gift card for Christmas) and I saw a free knitting pattern. We brought it home and looked up how to knit. It took us 3 days to actually get it and now we're all well on our way to a scarf. Afterwards we hope to knit hats, sweaters, and more scarves.
I think knitting is fun and easy. I find it simple to relax and knit a couple rows (even if I don't know how to bind off yet:)!)
Bye for now!

Notebooks

Hey, Buttercup here! I'd like to tell you about something that I found rather useful.
I thought that I would like to start a new series of books, because I have read most of the series that we have. We were at the library at the time (it was very quiet partly because it was a library and partly because everybody was in school) so I thought I would find a series to read from our library trips.I found an interesting looking series and checked out the first three. These books are the diary of a ten year old girl and I found them very funny. They gave me an idea. I could start my own notebook! So far I've written three pages and vented everything that was balled up inside. I drew pictures, wrote, and taped things in. Over time I hope to have multiple notebooks full of interesting thoughts to read.
If you'd like to find the books I'm reading the first one is called Amelia's Notebook (that's supposed to be underlined but the underline button isn't working!).
Bye for now!
