School out. The boys all got splendid marks. Albert got A’s for the last six weeks which brought his average up to B which is good, especially for a beginner. The boys are so joyous over the prospect of school out that one would think they didn’t like school. Continued from yesterday. After she left I went to the Sunday school party at Mrs. Weilands, left the children with Mama and getting back found that the three youngest had slept all the time and I had to wait till they woke up before coming home The big boys read.

(I guess Grandma believed it "let sleeping babies lie" along with toddlers and little boys!)

  1. I started reading from the beginning two days ago and finished today. Now much more of it makes sense and I am very fascinated by it. Thanks for commenting on my blog as well.

    I am most curious about Albert. As a convert to Catholicism myself, I am wondering what the family's reaction to his conversion and his decision to become a priest was. Perhaps Marjorie or Eleanor could provide some insight?

  2. I wonder if she let them sleep so she wouldn't have to deal with them. Young children can be wearing on a grandma
