Gifts

As I wrapped gifts in anticipation of Papa's birthday, my little Lady became excited with the thought of making and giving gifts. I let her use the scraps of paper. She cut and created talking all the while.

This is for Nana on a mission.
I make this.
This is for Grandpa when he comes home.
I cut.
I make this for Grandpa.

I am very afraid of the combination of my little girl with scissors, only because of the fascination she has shown for cutting hair. It required a lot of patience and holding back to allow this burst of creativity but I am so glad I did. I feel blessed to have witnessed the desire to give in one so young.

Between conference

Our young pioneers went on a trek to their fort. I appreciate their care for their sister.

Cookies from Visiting Teachers

Elowyn's response was, "My Tummy. I feel so sick. I need a yellow cookie."

Don't you wish you could use pan lids as shoes?

Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas

And all through the house

Not a creature was stirring

Larger than a Mouse

When what to our wondering eyes should appear

Another peanut suddenly was here
