One was Alice in Wonderland. I played the dormouse.
Another play was Beauty and the Beast. I played Beauty.
I was a better dormouse!
The children loved us all, though.
ËIt
is so good.
I know Alice in Wonderland but I am not
dormouse.
@dormouse
what this?
=>The dormouse is the little gray mouse that lived in the tea cup.
Alice had a tea party with the Mad Hatter. The dormouse came.
This past Friday my oldest granddaughter, Rebecca, graduated from high
school.
Many family members came.
It was joyous time.
We ate dinner afterward at a restaurant.
We had a great time.
ËThat's
nice.
