Mom Confesses

Yes, there is a time for every purpose under heaven. But was this the best time for Main House First Lady Mom to turn, turn, turn her head?

Mayor Asher Ply Wood and Autumn Fern were dishing out dog food for their animals. Mom knew what was going on when they set her storage containers filled with Queen Esther Hunt's kibbles on the coffee table. "Yes, I saw everything. I thought I'd take a chance. I knew what could happen." At the same time Sarah Daffodil was making a corn husk doll for her upcoming class she is teaching. Nathaniel Barn Loft was doing his writing lesson. Main House President Dad was writing fishing articles. Mom was holding Pastor Eli Hemlock while reading a biography about Clara Barton. "What was I to do? Everything else was so nice. A mess did happen but they are easy to clean." Mom added, "A wise lady once said, 'we can't take our clean houses with us." No doubt Mom will turn her head again.

Ply Wood and Fern were not sent to their Main House rooms until they started sliding on the dog food and throwing it. Mom was about to help them clean before this. You know what the two will be doing after dinner.
