Famous Backside

We always tease my mom because her backside ends up in more pictures than anyone else's. Here's a link to a photo from the district science fair, where apparently I'm famous from behind. (You have to scroll down a bit, as they've put the superintendent survey link up...while you're there, take the survey if you want your input heard!) Science Fair Judging Just keeping the tradition alive.

"High Five, Mom!"

Yesterday after lunch, Ian and I indulged in a bit of reading together, snuggling in a blanket to keep warm and cozy. We usually read 3 or 4 books, but yesterday we went all wild and crazy and read 5 of them. Usually, about halfway through book 3, I can hardly keep my eyes open and I end up rolling over for a little catnap...sometimes Ian joins me. As we finished yesterday and he recognized my sleepiness creeping in, he suddenly got jubilant. He declared, "Hey Mom! High Five! We read all five books today and you didn't even fall asleep!" Who couldn't love that little guy?

"How Do I Love Thee?"

I stumbled across this gem of a talk the other day and thought I'd share it with you. Talk given by Jeffrey R. Holland We can always use a good reminder about how to love. Maybe you can read it with your Valentine.

16 shopping days left, FYI

We like to celebrate all month long in February -- usually because it makes the winter not so dreary . So, this year, do you think our celebrating could just make the WINTER?
