Last night I read two more chapters of Little House in the Big Woods.

Uncle Peter and Aunt Eliza and three cousins came, in a big sleigh.

Laura got her first rag doll and is very proud of it. Before her new rag doll-Charlotte, she only had a corn cob doll.

Laura just turned five, Pa played Pop Goes the weasel and other children's songs for her.

Pa once again told a story to help teach them, it was about how even their grandpa had trouble minding/obeying sometimes, but how it was harder for children to obey in Grandpa's childhood, cause so much more was expected of them.
