Backpack, backpack

This post is set to the soundtrack of Dora the Explorer's "backpack song."  Don't know it?  Lucky you.

The other morning, still in their nightgowns, the girls packed their backpacks full of all sorts of wonderful things and set off for an adventure.

Clio got started, but after realizing that the bright sunshiny day belied Minnesota cold spring temperatures, she quickly made her way back in.

Eleri thought it wise to wait inside, and see if the adventure was worth having.

Tonight, putting them to bed, I saw Clio's backpack spilling its treasures onto the floor, and among the detritus, I found my missing coasters.
