It's Whatever Time -- April is here!

It's the time of the month again -- when Nat, Vic and I reveal the latest about what our Whatever Characters are doing! 

They found the note scrawled in a scrap of wood that was covered in layers of weathered and crackled paint. The note might have been as old as the scrap of wood – but Grandma could tell it wasn’t. The scratches looked “too new”.
Grandma immediately started thinking. 
Who needed her help. 
 
Why did they need her help.
 
What
could
 
she 
do?


Stay tuned for May -- when things start coming together in this story -- maybe Grandma, her daughter and granddaughter (who looks strangley EXACTLY like Grandma) will help. But will they help Mother or Father or maybe one of the kids? hmmm. lots to think about this month.

  2. This story is really getting to be interesting. Can't wait to see what happens in May. My first thought reading this was thinking it would be fun to make faux wood and use crackle paint to weather it and then scratch a message of some sort for a project. I'm off to write this idea down in my idea notebook. Have a Great week!
