Jenna looked out of the window and said, "It's still raining! Now my day with Nikki is not going to be fun. It's so boring. "
Jenna's cousin Nikki was coming over for the day. They had planned a picnic at the park. Rain drummed harder on the roof. "And it's noisy!" Jenna shouted.
Grandma came into the living room. "Did I hear you describe the rain as boring and noisy?" she asked. "Sounds like somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed."
"I did not, "'Jenna said." I got up the same way I always do. "
"You know what I mean. "" Grandma said.
"Look, "Nikki came in and said. "I've been so patient. I've been waiting for months to wear these boots (靴子)! The yellow ducks look just like bath toys. Let's go walking in the rain!"
"I don't want to get wet, "Jenna said. "I want it to be sunny so we can go to the park. That would be fun. "
Grandma looked at Jenna and said, "That's enough. I know you're down about the park. But you can still have a fun day. "
Jenna thought for a while. She knew Grandma was right. She was being kind of silly. Nikki sat down next to her. "I'm sorry you're sad. " Nikki said.
"Oh, it's okay, "Jenna said. "Do you still want to go walking? I can get my rain boots. ""Sure, "Nikki said. "And I have an idea for what to do then. We can have an inside picnic!" "An inside picnic? How can we do that?" Jenna asked.
"We can get the picnic blanket and put it on the floor. Then we can make a picnic lunch. We can eat it inside. We won't get wet, and there won't be any bugs!" Nikki said.
"That sounds like fun, "Jenna agreed. "We can walk around outside first. Then we'll make lunch. Can we make cookies too, Grandma?" she asked.
Grandma said, "Yes!"
" ▲ "Jenna said.
