Flat Stanley arrives!

The day we met Stanley, we were going from our house in Auburntown into Murfreesboro to run errands. We opened a letter from our cousin Gracie as we were leaving, and out popped Flat Stanley! Stanley was very excited to be out of the envelope. He jumped around the car and looked out all the windows at the farms with cows and horses. Eventually we got him calmed down and buckled in. "It doesn’t matter how flat you are," we told Stanley, "you still have to wear your seat belt in the car."



We stopped at the Murfreesboro Library garden with Stanley. It was a beautiful, sunny day. We found some large flat people in the garden and Stanley insisted on going up to talk to them.



We met our dad at one of our favorite restaurants and introduced him to Stanley. Stanley didn’t eat much, but he did seem fond of the desserts. It was late when we got back home, but we watched a little of our favorite TV show before we went to bed. Naomi let Stanley sleep on her doll bed so he could get a good night’s rest before our next adventure.
