1. The SUN shone through the parlor window very clear and bright, as Mama browsed the newspaper after a restful night. It was a nice warm Saturday as Mama sat and read, while Papa and the cubs were all still tucked away in bed. The weather forecast was a picture perfect summer day, and Mama planned to spend it in the most delightful way.
2. Papa had just cleaned the car the very day before, so Mama could enjoy her DRIVE down to The Country Store. Adhering to her weekly schedule she routinely went, to shop for needed items which was money quite well spent. Buying household items or the children’s school supplies, was so rewarding when she saw it light the children’s eyes!
3. She dressed picked up her purse and shawl and hopped into the car, then backed out with the top down as she felt a gentle stir. Turning down the country road enjoying the fresh air, it felt rejuvenating as it gently blew her hair. The road was graced on both sides with small hills of grassy green, while large pink blossomed trees all helped adorn the lovely scene. With roadside FLOWERS blooming petaled faces seemed to smile, in a wide array of colors mile after mile.
4. After a pleasant journey she began to catch a glimpse, of the quaint and cozy VILLAGE at a fair distance. Suddenly she realized that she was finally there, passing all the homey shops within the village square. Her favorite was The Country Store which suited all her needs, Like household, clothing, school supplies and even gardening.
5. She spent a lovely afternoon just browsing through each shop, and for a hot fudge SUNDAE even made a pleasant stop. As she drove home leisurely she felt glad and content, thinking how delightfully the afternoon was spent. But the most rewarding moment she was waiting for, was when she’d be walking through her very own front door!
