Count your blessings one by one.
I'm thankful for a break in the heat.
'Cause then we had some fun.
I'm thankful for thunder, how lovely the beat.
And I'm thankful I got to write this poem,
'cause it was so much fun.

The Great Awakening
The Great Awakening began in the 1730's. Three of the men that began it were Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and Gilbert Tennent. They were all preachers, just like Daddy! They wanted people to have true relationships with the Lord, just like the Christians of today. These men and others like them preached special services outdoors or in tents.
Mommy's note...all of the research was done by Olivia, and this was the first draft of this paragraph. Great job, Olivia!

Goose Pot & Goose Top
Goose Pot and Goose Top are twins who are very silly, just like Pop Pop. They are so silly that they walk upside down. They only walk right side up when it is raining. The twins love apples so much that they eat five apples a day! When the twins write, they write their names upside down. Goose Pot and Goose Top only come out when people are asleep because they don't like to be seen. Whenever I think about Goose Pot and Goose Top, I just roll with laughter!
Goose Pot and Goose Top are very clever. They have worked out a plan to know when we're asleep. They run a tiny cord from their home inside children's mattresses to near their pillows. The cord is attached to a radio at one end and a microphone at the other end. They use this equipment to hear and know when the children are asleep. Once the breathing on the radio turns to snoring, they go out and play fun games. They ride tiny bikes, have races, and play with Lincoln Logs.
One night I outsmarted them. This is how I did it. I saw one of the tiny cords leading up to my bed. I moved it through a hole in the wall that led to my brother's room, and then went to his room and put the microphone on his pillow. That night they thought they heard me snoring, but it was really my brother! I was still awake! When those silly twins came out, I saw them! They were playing their fun games as I watched them. They had no idea I was awake! The next morning I told my family what I saw. I said, "Those were the silliest twins I have ever seen!"
