The Winter (So Far)
Nonie started big girl school (with a “dress code”); we had a huge blizzard and she got a new sled, which was useful to get out of the front door that day; she got a fabulous “big girl” haircut; and we all went to a conference in St. Louis (Missouri).
We had a longish road trip there and back and Nonie was not too enamored of my paper (”what does mean give a paper, Mummy?”) and was too sick for Dad’s, but other than a great time was had by all at the Arch, on the Mississippi river (when Nonie of course made friends), at the zoo and, best of all, the City Museum (a fantasy play world for kids of all sizes). As this was where the conference closing banquet was, we were all a tad overdressed, but that did not stop fun from being had, for the most part.
Nonie’s moment of pique, serendipitously captured below a poster that says pique!
