Flat Niamh's Journal Entry from Dearborn, Michigan

Hello!!!


It is so different with snow! Everything is so cold and wet, but it is very pretty to look at! I even have a hat, mittens, and boots (oh and a scarf!). I have been helping Chloë with a lot of things: school work (especially math, she does not like it), memorizing, and I was even at her brother Connar's Birthday Party! I got a brownie! On Tuesday, we went to a friend's house and made cookies. I also got to see some pottery, it was a very cool lesson. 

There hasn't been to much else going on, mostly being at home, reading, or watching movies. But tomorrow I get to go to all of Chloë's classes! That will be fun!

Love,
Flat Niamh

Chloë says: Flat Niamh was getting cold, so she got a hat, scarf, mittens, and some boots! :) Yes...she is wearing a French hat, but that does not mean she is in France!!!

Good thing! 23 degrees is cold.  Look at some of the photos Chloë took for her photography class:

No swimming? 

Flat Niamh helped Chloë in memorizing "The Mad Gardener's Song", a poem by Lewis Carroll.  This was for an audition to be in a production of Hansel and Gretel. 

Here we see Flat Niamh helping Chloë with more schoolwork-in this instance, a bit of light reading:

Flat Niamh has been exposed to some gluten-free foods and has developed a fondness for gluten-free oats.

Chloë says: Flat Niamh likes to help us knit!

And lastly, Chloë says:  LOOK WHAT FLAT NIAMH IS BRINGING HOME!!!!

And here is an interesting bit of trivia about Dearborn: 

Episode #383 of the The Simpsons, titled "G.I. (Annoyed Grunt)" portrays Milhouse being asked, "Where are all the cool kids at?" to which Milhouse replies, "Dearborn, Michigan".

We know a few very cool kids who live in Dearborn.  Watch for further updates.............
