Churchmouse – March

1 March 2017 By Sue

mice2Hi Friends,

Oh Parchina and I are so happy spring is on its way, that’s why we are dancing, and because our birthdays are soon. Did you know Parchina and I are twins so we have a great time celebrating our birthdays? Mum usually invites all the family around for tea and of course all our friends, there are so many mice gathered we can’t have the party in church in case someone hears us and we might get caught!

Did you know that some people don’t like mice living in their churches or even their houses? Guess what, Rev Cate is one of those people who doesn’t like having mice in her house. We were so surprised to hear her telling someone the other day about the mouse in her house. We heard her say that a mouse kept visiting her; I expect it was one of our field mice friends. Well she was getting cross about it and do you know what she did? She put down a trap, how shocking! Anyway this mouse was very clever and during the night would come and take the food out of the trap very carefully and not get caught- hee hee, served Rev Cate right!!Eventually he did get caught, but we were glad to hear that Rev Cate took it carefully away from her house and let it go in a field. WE were very relieved to hear that.

Back to our party: in 2 weeks time we will be celebrating our birthdays, this year it’s fancy dress. I think I’m going to dress up as a pirate, did you know there were mice on pirate ships? Parchina is not sure, she laughed and said she might dress us as a ship’s cat! Whatever we decide to do, we know it’s going to be great fun and a good celebration just like the lovely celebration that took place in church this month for the Christening of Chester Kittow, so many happy faces and we hope for lots of happy faces at our party too. See you soon,

Parchie
