Laura's post may or may not suck because she is writing an essay on the impeachment of Andrew Johnson

Hello all!
    My title is very direct. I am trying to multitask. So, if at some point I start babbling on about 'leniency towards former Confederates' or 'vetoed civil rights bills' you'll know it is because I forgot to switch between Blogger and Microsoft Word. Bear with me, friends and followers.
    GRACE. Your post on Thursday made me a bit nostalgic, and I don't quite know why. It was bleak and gray and beautiful, much like Wuthering Heights. You know I know exactly what you mean by the wintry depression. It feels like the ice and cold that is outside is somehow inside of you- at least, in my experience. In case you were wondering, I wrote this post in red because red is a happy, flamboyant color, and perhaps it will distract you from your NaNo/Round Story hangover and post-Holiday depression.
    And Rose, I know you are done. You talk about it 24/7. Half the time I find you entertaining or borderline annoying, the other half I chuckle evilly and say to myself "I cannot wait to see if she survives these next three years." Ha. Hahaha. Hahahahahahaaaa but seriously you need a coping method, else you'll go crazy (crazier, actually) and resort to alcohol or self-harm (Just kidding. We all know you'll really become agoraphobic and clinically diagnosed with severe ILS/PBA). How about prancercise? Or meditation? Or voodoo? I know you would get a kick out of sticking pins in the doll forms of everyone you dislike. I'm not trying to fix your problem. I just want peace and quiet. I am being entirely self-focused in my giving of advice.

    Aaand...Mercy. Thank you for writing a post that almost completely contradicted my previous one. This here's for you:

sometimes you make me go like this

   

But the rest of the time you make me smile. Probably because we are a lot alike.

Also Jared Padalecki because he's Jared freakingperfectadorablesexyawesome Padalecki

 Anyway. I don't really know what to post about. So I'll talk about my go-to topic when I have nothing to talk about.
    The weather.
    It's very Decembery today. Did you here it's supposed to snow tomorrow? I'm actually vastly excited about the prospect of snow. Like, kid-in-FAO-Schwarz-with-enough-money-for-every-toy-excited. I want the pond to freeze over so we can build a snow ramp and sled onto the ice and go exploring on the frozen surface and go home and get in our pj's and make hot chocolate with whipped cream and too many marshmallows and cuddle under Rosie's marshmallow comforter and watch Pride & Prejudice. Also, I want a white Christmas. Or maybe I just want to watch White Christmas.

I'm thinking I want to watch the movie.

Second GIF because we all know this is the best scene in the whole movie.

So..what are your opinions on the weather?
    Really, my conversation skills are not that awkward most of the time. But today is a rainy Monday and I'm overtired and my friend made me watch a scary movie today, all of which have significantly hampered my abilities at social interaction. So, much like our phone call yesterday, I shall end with a very hasty and slightly rude goodbye. Mercy, I can't wait to read what you and your little brain write about tomorrow.

In which Grace likes making lists and apperently likes talking in third person for her post titles

Dear Laura, Mercy, Rose and whoever might be reading this, 

I'm also experiencing PRSD. I'm also experiencing The NaNo Hangover. pretty much I have no inspiration to blog. I don't know what I want to blog about because I didn't have anything this week to go off of. and I have so many new story ideas to write about but I have no motivation to start writing again. Except one idea is so cool that I might start it. Basically, my great great grandparents met on a boat coming over from Sweden and they got married and I was reading this family history book about it and it is amazingly sweet and cute and I really want to research it more and find out all I can about it and write about it. It reminds me of The Titanic except it has a happy ending which results in many more generations of people. Sorry Leonardo DiCaprio.... sucks to be you.

Point of that is that I'm grasping on to any sort of inspiration that I have. Winter sucks all inspiration right out of me because the sun goes away and I have found that the weather dramatically affects my mood and I know it does the same to you girls too because we have moaned about it each other so many times. I hate falling into the post-Christmas-and-New-Years-depression that comes about January 5th when people go back to school and the Christmas tree comes down and you realize all those New Years resolutions are stupid and the same ones that you've made for the past 8 years of your life and they never actually happen and you can't listen to Christmas music any more and all the lights are gone and everything is gross brown/grey and cold and it sucks.

So before all that happens I'm hyping myself up for it. I'm going to make a list of things that I want to accomplish during January and hopefully it will help me from falling into that cold bleak depression. (also I adore making lists)

*Start editing NaNo
*Start writing something fun
*read three (or more) books that I've never read before
*start voice lessons with my piano teacher

Not only will this list grow with time but I'm also compiling a list of things that will hopefully keep me inspired when everything else is dark and cold

*listen to 'Winter Winds' by Mumford and Sons
*redecorate your room
*pull out your favorite childhood novel and reread it, remembering all the things you love about it
*paint
*make a cake. (did you know that November was national bundt cake month? I only just remembered this right now and I'm realizing I did not make a single bundt cake the whole month. I'll just make one later today.)
*stop listening to Mumford, The Head and The Heart, and Bon Iver just for one afternoon and have a dance party to Taylor Swift and anything else on the radio. or country music. it does wonders to an unhappy person.
*Watch The Vlogbrothers
*Write a poem that will make someone laugh
*Watch Pride and Prejudice
*get out of pajamas and wear something really cute. or something a little crazy. Anything to get you out of your sweats and over sized hoody.
*stop drinking tea and make a drink disaster.

I think part of the reason of this depression we all seem to find ourselves in is that we allow ourselves to fall into it. We get all caught up in doing school. And listening to the depressing/thoughtful music. We drink tea while staring out the window at the bleak outdoors with our over sized hoodys pulled over our heads. We shuffle around in our slippers only leaving the house when we have to. I do know that the sun actually does play a part in this and the fact that it goes away for a few months does put a damper on anyone's spirits but that doesn't mean we have to be huge clouds of gloom. I don't know if this will actually help at all but I'm going to try it and see if maybe I wont seem so utterly unhappy from January till May.

For right now though, I shall go finish my school while listening to Christmas music. I will research my family history some more, and then I shall bake a bundt cake and make it blue just for Ethan because he desperately wants me too. (he wanted blue chocolate chip cookies but I want a cake so we agreed on a blue cake. he's reading Percy Jackson and he's now part of the fandom) I shall rejoice in the fact that is the very beginning of the Christmas season and that I am not a complete depressed lump of a person. I hope y'all have fantastic Thursday and weekend and don't forget to watch Carrie Underwood's 'Sound of Music' on tv tonight. Laura, I can't wait to read your post on Monday <3 Grace

I'm so done, it's not even funny.

It's HUMP DAYY! Laura, I'm craycray excited for Chiristmas too!! Mercy, your post was fantastic! I am suffering from PRSD as well so I feel your pain. BUT THAT DAVID TENNANT GIF! I CANNOT RESPECT THAT!

Anyway I have no idea what to post about....

I had an idea....

what was it.......?

Ummmmm

So....

hmm....

hmmmmmmmmm......

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

OH YEAH! I NEED TO TELL Y'ALL ABOUT MY DISEASE! I HAVE EARLY ON SET SENIOR ITUS! ISN'T THAT JUST LOVELY? But really, I am so done with high school right now. I know I'm homeschooled and I don't know the half of it, but it has nothing to do with school itself. Well it might have a little to do with school, but that's not my point. My point is I am so unbelievably done with stupid high school students who can't see outside of there stupid selves that they can't bother to keep there stupid mouths shut...long story short I'm counting down the days until I can leave this place and go away to school.

Don't get me wrong, not every high schooler is the same. There are some people that I like, but for the most part I just  can't.The reason that this is problem is because I'm a freshmen. I have 4 freaking years of this....this...!@#$%^&*()_+_)(*&^%$%^&*^%$%^&*&^$  I can't do it. I can't do it!

Anyway, here's some gif to explain my current feels.

Anyway, I should probably just suck it up and deal with it, but gurl please what good does that do? 

Anyway, sorry for the shortness/suckyness of this post. Gracie, I'm looking forward to your post tomorrow!

How to be productively lazy

Good morning girls, it's Tuesday.

LAURA, YOUR POST WAS FANTASTIC!

I'm in Post-Round-Story-Depression (PRSD) which can be very fatal. The best cure for it is do just do another round-story. Sometime. Soon. hint hint

But, like Laura, I'm also in a very Christmas-y mood. Or spirit. Whatever it's called.

And I'm happy, because- ROSE, MIDNIGHT MEMORIES IS ON SPOTIFY.

That's all.

You know what else is fantastic? I AM WEARING FLEECE-LINED LEGGINGS! UNDERNEATH MY PJ PANTS. IT'S FANTASTIC! It feels like being wrapped in a warm comforter that just got out of the dryer, sitting on a huge comfy couch while drinking hot chocolate and watching a Christmas movie, probably Holiday Inn. Or Its A Wonderful Life. Nope, definitely Holiday Inn. Because that's my favorite movie ever. And I think these fleece-lined leggings are my favorite -pants- leggings ever. 

Anyway, after Laura's extremely invigorating, lets-never-be-lazy-again post, Imma tell you all how to be productively lazy! Yay! 

It's like doing things that make you feel productive, but really you're not doing anything at all. It's wonderful! So here's a rough list I've constructed so far.

1) Write a play

2) Listen to Christmas music

3) Do like three lessons of math in one day (okay this one actually sucks)

4) Learn a song on piano

5) Make supper (I have no experience with this one, I'm just guessing)

6) Get changed for a day. (As you get out of your pajamas.. and wear real clothes. I really hate doing this one. It sucks like, a lot.) 

7) Read a book! 

8) Make Christmas cookies

9) Do a Pinterest craft/recipe 

10) Make a list

11) Write a blog post 

12) Dang it I just had one and forgot it. 

SO YUS. That's, um, my list!

Laura said my post should be short, so it will be.

BUT FIRST. I'm starting a new trend. For myself only.

Every Tuesday when I post, I shall have a GIF of the day. AND TODAY'S IS............... 

TUMBLR DOES STRANGE THINGS TO YOUR MIND, I'M TELLING YOU! I'm sorry, but I laughed way too hard at this. Like, for rizzle. This is just weird. Yet I had a serious moment of ILS. Ah, what has my life become? 

xoxo, Mercy 

So Freakin Excited.

it's a festive reindeer. Greeting us in the yus voice. Perfection.

WARNING! EXTREMELY LONG AND RAMBLY POST AHEAD! READ ON AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Hello! Hello to our dear and lovely readers and followers, who have stuck with us through thick and thin, and who are here now, in the aftermath of our fantastic Round Story. Hello Grace. I miss your face. And the rest of your wonderful little person. Winter is fast approaching, and I know you'll be hibernating soon, so keep calm and carry on girlygirl ;). Hello Mercy-with-the-hotmazing-hair-and-overactive-tear-ducts. The Doctor regenerates for the 12th time on Christmas. Go cry in a corner now. Hello Rose. I see you practically every day. You know what I have to say to you. *sassy eyebrow wiggle*
    Moving on. I was so excited to post today, after Grace's fab conclusion to the round story and the Liebster Award interview. So freakin excited. Take Surprise Party Sue, multiply her times twelve, add Jaquan on Thanksgiving, and Rose when she blows off school to watch Supernatural, and you have a somewhat accurate representation of my level of excitement. I don't think there is an exact reason I can pinpoint as the source of my extremely good mood. Maybe it's because Christmas is in 23 days, and I've started knitting presents and listening to Michael Buble's Christmas album nonstop (ask Mercy about how Santa Baby is her favorite song on that whole CD. I dare you). Or perhaps it is because I will be turning eighteen in -CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? CUZ I CANT- 49 days! 7 weeks from this very day I can get a tattoo, get married, and get a real job (of course I'll only be doing one of those things, but I'm not telling you which one;). It could also be because I figure that within the next couple of months I will make my final college decision from one of the Big Three on my list and be able to sit back and breathe for the first time in what feels like eons.
    All of those are happy things. But of course I have to think too hard about them until they are unhappy. Maybe I'm extra hormonal today, or maybe the more you think about it, Christmas is vastly commercial and deviated from its true purpose. Plus, not everyone celebrates Christmas- imagine what it's like to be one of those people and have everyone assume that because it's Christmas time you have to be in the holiday spirit and buy aaall the best gifts or everyone you know will hate you and force yuletide cheer yay-Christmas-ornaments-trees-Santa-holidays-yayyyy. I'm a Christian, and that bothers me to no end. And turning eighteen worries me at times- I'm not afraid, just worried (I am learning now there is a difference). I'll be on my own and have to make adult decisions, and I still look like I'm a middle schooler just waiting to blossom into a hot teenager with a not-high-pitched voice and a sense of style, so we all know I'm going to screw this one up. And college? They say knowing what you want is a good thing. Clearly "They" are all people who are so good at so many things that they don't know exactly what they want to do with their lives. I have wanted to be a nurse since I was twelve years old. I have been dreaming and praying and working on this goal for so long- what if I start my pre-nursing classes and end up hating blood and guts, or failing college science, or getting squeamish about catheterizing male patients? (there, I said it). Also, I find it unfair that literally so many kids have their entire future planned out and handed to them on a silver platter. They don't have to work hard a day of their lives because Mom & Pop will provide them with college tuition and connections and careers. Whereas I have to do well in school to get good grades to get a good SAT score to have impressive transcripts to get enough financial aid to go to the college of my dreams to have the career of my dreams (it's my own fault for falling in love with SHU and then finding out later on that their tuition is almost 50K. It's like when you think you know somebody, and then they drop the bomb on you after you've fallen hook, line and sinker. This is a good life lesson, kids. Look before you leap).
    Of course, you girls know me all to well. You know I think too much. I have just as many brilliant thoughts as I have awful ones. And...you know what I have recently realized? That life here on earth is as brilliant as it is awful. Christmas is as joyful as it is fake. Being a grown-up is as liberating as it is stressful. Knowing what you want is just as scary as having five different ambitions, and working to make your dreams come true is certainly worth all the heartbreak along the way.
    Do you get what I'm saying? We can't stay on the sidelines of our own lives just because we have to endure the bad along with the good. Every writer knows that a protagonist must face conflict to develop as a character to live happily ever after. That applies to our own lives as well. So, my point is you can be happy with the good, the bad, and the ugly. It all depends on your perspective. We have to fearlessly put our true selves out there, despite all the adversity we will inevitably face, in order to experience beautiful things, achieve greatness, and perhaps find love along the way.
    My mood is a really good one today, despite my worries and cynicism and doubts. That was the point of this rather long and confusing post. This was probably a lot to read after 3 weeks of the greatest round story ever. But y'all know me. Half the time I'm a totally laid-back screwball/facial contortionist, the other half I'm anxious and contemplative and somewhat of a Debbie Downer. Thank god for the other three-fourths of the Foursome, for your ability to put up with me for so long (we know it's because I put up with all of you as well). And thank god for this blog, and the ability I have through it to really talk to you girls like I can talk to no one else. I mean, we were awesome before we started a blog, but now we are awesome AND we have the potential to start something great. Thank you, Internet!
    Mercy, you should write a short post tomorrow to make up for the length of this one. Kisses,
Laura xoxo

Leibster Award

We were nominated for an award! Now it's not really an award with acceptance speeches and all (so disappointing) but it's basically just like someone says 'hey-I-think-your-blog-is-cool-and-I-want-people-to-know-about-it-so-I-posted-about-it-on-my-blog-and-you-now-need-to-nominate-someone-else'

The awesome Courtney Cox (aka- our awesome first follower) nominated us on her blog (http://abominable-readers.blogspot.com you should check it out) and so we are decided to post today about it instead of messing up the round story.

We decided that it would make the most sense for us to nominate our fabulous followers. The few. The proud. The OTAS followers. So, if you are reading this, and you follow our blog, congratulations! You have been nominated for the Liebster award! Follow the instructions below in order to accept it:

Rules for Accepting the Reward 

If you've been nominated , this is what you need to do:

 - Link back to the blog that nominated you.

 
- Answer the questions they set for the blogs they nominated.

 
- Nominate 10 blogs of your own, and be sure to let them know, with a link to your post!

- Ask 10 questions for the blogs you nominate to answer in their post.

Why did you start a blog?
(Grace) I started my blog because it sounded like a super cool idea but we started this blog because it's our way of keeping in touch.
(Mercy) I started my personal blog because it's a good way to just talk.. about anything and everything you want to talk about. But like Grace said, we started OTAS to keep in touch. 
(Laura) I started my blog because it was something I had always dreamt of doing, and at a difficult time in my life I decided to do it and not care what anyone thought of me because of it. We started OTAS because we are inconsistent letter writers and this is far more entertaining, anyway.
(Rose) I started my blog because I needed a place to rant essentially. Not to mention, it's a fantastic place to fangirl.
What book series got you into reading?
(G) I think it was Robinson Crusoe that I had to read for school in fourth grade. It was probably one of my first chapter books and I found it really interesting and enjoyable. 
(M) My first chapter book I read by myself was Because Of Winn-Dixie- I think I read it like four or five times in a year just because it was my first "big book." But the book that actually got me into reading was Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief. I was about 9 when I first read it and I was so proud of myself and I loved it so much... that's what got me into reading, really.
(L) I read and reread the Dear America Diaries (written by various authors) all through Elementary school. I found it amazing that all throughout history, girls my own age went through some of the same stuff as me. I think I read all the ones my library had in about six months.
(R) The first book I ever read was Little House on the Prairie, and I absolutely hated it, I didn't even finish it. But the first book that ever got me into reading was The Sisters Grimm, when I was in the 4th grade.
What was the first book you bought? 
(G) I actually hardly ever buy books. They tend to be too expensive at the book stores I go to.
(M) Yeah.. I really don't buy books that much.. sadly. I go to the library. 
(L) It might have been one of the books in the Charlie Bone series. I recently bought a used copy of Pride & Prejudice at a shop in Cape Cod. I still owe John Backus eight dollars for it.
(R) Unlike everyone else I hoard books, it's a genetic trait. Anyway, the first book I ever bought was some fairy book, Lily's Pesky Plant, it was a fairy book coincidentally, actually I think it was the first book I ever read.
Favorite book or series?
(G) This is so hard! I really really like reading and books of all kinds and there are so many good ones that I've read. Probably my first favorite book was Inkheart by Cornelia Funk but there have been so many others that I love. WHY WOULD YOU ASK THIS QUESTION!!
(M) HARRY FREAKING POTTER. (I love how everyone else is like 'what the heck do you think you're asking?!' and I'm just like HARRY FREAKING POTTER.' I mean, it's not an easy question, but it's the truth for me.)
(L) WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THIS DO YOU KNOW THE EMOTIONAL TOLL A SIMPLE BOOK CAN TAKE ON YOU?! If I had to choose I'd say Pride & Prejudice or The Fault in Our Stars. My favorite series will always be Harry freaking Potter.
(R) Oh my goodness, I have like 24,061 favorite books. Harry Potter is my absolute favorite because nothing compares to Harry Freaking Potter. But I also love Shakespeare, every book written by Phillip Gulley ever,  TFIOS, Paper Towns, Little Women, Alice in Wonderland, the Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, Number the Stars, the Book Thief, the Hiding Place, An Abundance of Katherine's, and other stuff that I can't think of...I like to read...
Are you on Goodreads? If so leave a link to your profile!
(G) Yus I am. I don't use it very much though
(M) YUUSSS I AM! I love it so much and I do like Harry Potter role-play's it's so fun ;) Here
(L) I go on and read the ship wars between fandoms. It's very entertaining. I think I have an account...oh it looks like I do!
(R) I haven't been on in months, but I think I have one..
 Hard bound or paperback? 
(G) I really like how hard bound looks but I think I prefer reading a paper back because it's easier.
(M) Either. I don't mind. I WILL dogear my pages no matter what. I'm such a bad girl. (Unless it's my nice hard bound Harry Potter books...)
(L) I agree with the Curly-Q (Mercy). If I'm buying a book it's whatever is cheaper (so, usually paperback).
(R) Hard bound for sure.
Favorite reading spot?
(G) Pretty much anywhere. Though the couch seat nearest the window or on my bed would have to be my favorites.  
(M) Anywhere that's warm with lots of sunshine.
(L) late at night, either on my bed or downstairs all alone with the silence.
(R) In my room, on my bed, under the covers, with the door shut, by myself.
Do you like to go to BAM (Books a million)
(G) I've never been to BAM but it sounds super cool
(M) Same as Grace- I've never been, but it sounds amazing! 
(L) did you mean THE CLOSEST THING TO HEAVEN I HAVE EVER WALKED INTO ON A FINE SUMMER'S DAY AT THE TRUMBULL MALL? In which case yes, I am lucky enough to have a BAM as my nearest bookstore.
(R) YUS! AND THEY HAVE DOCTOR WHO STUFF! AND COOL EDITIONS OF HARRY POTTER! I love it so much.
And finally what is an upcoming book into movie that you can't wait to go see?
(G) I'm really wanting to see Catching Fire but The Book Thief also looks really good though I want to read the book first. 
(M) I REALLY want to see Catching Fire, The Hobbit- Desolation of Smaug, The Fault In Our Stars.. yep. I also want to see Thor- Into Darkness (which already came out) and I STILL NEED TO SEE THIS IS US! (The One Direction movie) it's so sad, I STILL haven't seen it.. </3
(L) agh, the list is somewhat endless. I am dying to see The Book Thief, the Hobbit part 2, Divergent (I mean to read the book first) and, of course, The Fault in Our Stars (6/6/14 EVERYBODY!).
(R) TFIOS, and The book Thief. Oh and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, but that doesn't even have a release date yet.

In which Grace finishes The Most Amazing Round Story ever so epically. (Post title by Mercy)

Teddy took Walter aside so no one would hear what he wanted to say, even though they were all watching and trying to hear anyway.
"In vain I have struggled for the right words, it will not do. Walter, you must allow me to tell you ardently I admire and love you." Teddy had been waiting to say that ever since he had read Pride and Prejudice but since he had only ever been able to sing he couldn't ever say it. But now he could and so now he did.
"Oh Teddy! That is my favorite book ever and I always said that if a man ever said that line to me I'd marry him right away" Walter exclaimed. Teddy's face broke out in a large smile "But-" Walter hesitated for a moment. "Now that it's happening I'm not sure how to feel. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like you Teddy, you're a wonderful person but I don't really know you yet. We've only just met." Teddy's face now held a slight frown but Walter wasn't finished yet. "Why don't we take this slow. Get to know each other a bit, and then we can see where this thing goes." She reached down and took his hand and then looked him in the eye. "Can we live with that?" Teddy looked back at her and then nodded a smile growing on his face.
"I can't live with you not getting your dreams though." He said slowly. He wasn't quite used to the fact that he could actually talk. He led her across the room to Jerry. "Jerry... or should I say dad, this is Walter. Walter this is my dad." He smiled when he said dad for he couldn't quite get used to the fact that he had a dad and a sister. Jerry took Walter into the recording room and they started singing. Teddy sat down on the couch next to Harry who was sitting next to Amelia. They were getting acquainted and Teddy didn't want to interrupt. "Teddy you have to get to know your sister. She's awesome." Harry said to Teddy, making Amelia blush. As Teddy and Amelia got to know each other, Teddy felt so happy he could burst.

I've been waiting the whole story to put this in.

And now to Uncle Chris and Jane the sassy novice. Uncle Chris stood close to the window into the recording room watching his favorite niece sing her heart out. Well she didn't actually sing her heart out, that would be disgusting. But she was pretty close, that's how powerful her voice was. Jane came up next to him and looked in at Walter too.
"Chris, I think I need to be blunt with you because I am sassy and I enjoy being blunt with people. I know how you feel about me. You make it extremely obvious, but I don't feel that same way. I am a strong independent woman who don't need no man." At this statement Uncle Chris looked down at his toes feeling his heart fall all the way to the floor and shatter into pieces.

"But since all my friends at the orphanage are pretty sassy too, just not as sassy as me for I am the ultimate 'Mmm gurl', I have appreciated how calm you and how pleasant you are to be around. I wouldn't mind being friends but I do not need a boyfriend of any kind." She added this last part in a very sassy voice just so he would get the point.
"Okay. Friends is good." Uncle Chris said his voice that melts every girls heart, except the sassy novice's.

 She then gave him a quick sassy slap and then a small smile.

This was just to cute not to include

and of course there has to be a sassy gif

 After Walter was done recording and after Jerry had treated them all to an awesome New York dinner Sassy Novice turned to Harry.
"Is it time to find your sisters?" Harry looked around. He saw Walter and Teddy sitting next to each other and holding hands under the table, best friends just know these things. Uncle Chris gazing at sassy novice Jane. Amelia next to him and Jerry in between her and Teddy. He shook his head at Sassy novice.
"You know what Sassy novice Jane? I'm a little bit tired out. So much has happened today and I wouldn't even know where to start looking for my sisters. It's not that I don't want to find them, it's just that I don't think I'm ready to yet. Maybe next time we're itching for adventure we can find them." Sassy novice Jane nodded at him.
"That sounds perfect. Now, Jerry would you be interested in adopting your son?"
"Interested? That would be completely fantastic!" He said with a cheeky grin.

And so the Sassy novice Jane took them all back to the orphanage with her fairy magic so that the next morning Jerry could do all the paperwork. Don't you worry though, all the girls stayed in separate rooms from the boys so nothing would happen. As Teddy lay in bed that night thinking about everything that happened he turned in the darkness to Harry and said: "Harry, this morning when I woke up I decide today would be the best day ever. And then it was."
"Really? What made you think of that this morning." Harry asked sleepily.
"Well I just had a thought that somehow this birthday would be the best."
"ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY?!" Harry asked sitting up in bed.
"Yep. September 1st. The same it's been every single other year."
"Oh Teddy I'm so sorry I forgot." Harry said feeling like a terrible friend.
"It's okay. I was to busy today to really think about it myself. And I guess I got the best presents I could ask for." Teddy said feeling content.
"Yeah. Maybe that's when we can find my sisters, on my next birthday." Harry said.
"January 11th." Teddy said. "Enough time for us to plan and find them."
"Maybe we can tell the others in the morning." Harry said as he drifted off to sleep. Teddy smiled and nodded just before he to joined Harry in a blissful sleep.

And so concludes the story... for the meantime. Maybe we'll tell you all about Harry's adventures some time. Except they haven't happened yet. If they do decide to go find his sisters it won't happen until January 11th as they said above. But if does happen and they tell us everything they do then we will faithfully record it here.

We hope you enjoyed this story, if you have any comments about it's awesomeness, if you find any plot holes, or if you want to publish it and then turn it into a movie we would be more than happy to hear from you. Just leave us a comment and tell us what you thought. We'll be back to posting like normal on Monday with Laura's post. Can you believe that it will be December? November is almost over and that means NaNoWriMo is almost over. Unfortunately I'm not close to being finished with my story but I did help write this one this November so I think that should count for something. I do know for a fact that I wrote over 50,000 words even if they weren't all in one story. Anyway, I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving and that you continue to have a fabulous holiday weekend and Laura we can't wait to hear from you on Monday <3 Grace
