Summer Break Day #15
- Discover that Yali has created his own “Monster Truck” show, drawing enthusiastic shouting faces with washable maker on the front door as audience backdrop
- While taking Yali and Patience on afternoon walk, realize at one point that Patience, self-festooned in orange slices sun dress, cheetah print slip-on shoes, and theatrical pink butterfly wings on her back, is picking freshly fallen mulberries off the street and packing them in her mouth as quickly as she sees them
- Oxbear introduces the world of coding to both Puck and his best friend, Bob, while I take Yali and Patience rock hunting in the creek bed (discover another Native rock tool) and pick up chocolate custard topped with M&Ms on the drive home (to keep them awake of course)

While preparing the Monster Truck rally in the living room…
Patience : “Can I play with you, Yali?”
Yali : “No, I want to play by my own… You want to watch the show?”
Patience : “Yes!”
After some time had passed, and Patience was busy helping Yali tape together the cardboard box arena, he chuckled and said to her…
“Whoa, whoa, whoa. What are you doing, you little cupcake?”
