Time passes so fast! I have not updated my blog for a long time, and my last post was about our Chickens, Hazel and Tin-hen. Henry (our dog) used to chase them and we had to keep him on the chain. It was hard when ever he got off his chain! Once Sarah, (she is three) let him off the chain and was delighted. He took off towards the chickens, who felt very safe when Henry was on his chain. I just happened to be near,(but the only problem was I was in roller-skates) and started out as fast as I could. But you can't run very fast when you are in roller skates. The main thing you do is fall down when you try to run. That is what happened to me. I got up as fast as I could, but didn't have time to take off the roller-skates. It was really hard, but I made it down the stairs. I couldn't go any farther, (be cause you can't make out on the rough ground when you are in skates) and frantically tried to catch Henry. First he ran one way, and I almost caught him, and then he came back the other way and I caught him. By then everybody else had come out, and Moses took Henry for me so I could take off my skates. The chickens had had a terrible fright. Henry got off his chain another time, but that is a whole different story for later, when my hands feel like typing some more, for now they are tired.
