Since I showed a video of Ellie, I should show you what Abby and Sam were up to while Ellie was busy practicing her elocution:
[sorry – I took the slideshow out because I couldn’t get it to edit the music out no matter what I did, and I was irritated that it auto-plays the slideshow every time I load my blog page, so I have to hear the blasted music every time. It’s annoying, so until I can fix it, the slideshow is gone. Suffice it to say, it was a slide show of Abby and Sam standing at the kitchen gate and it was very cute!]
