See this box of petit fours?

It used to be full when it arrived last night.  Now there are 10 holes in it due to the one and only Tom Thumb. He's the ultimate petit four thief!

An interesting place to be...

A lot has happened over the last month.  Red has suddenly shown lots of interest in doing school related things --- playing Rightstart math games (she loves Go to the Dump), doing reading lessons (we just finished lesson 122), and reading aloud to me.  It's a whole new world of cooperation and I'm loving it.

School is going well.  Red is concerned already about going to first grade next year.  I told her that we'll cross that bridge when we come to it and not to worry herself. 

I'm in preparations for Christmas.  While I'm done with buying gifts, I still have to wrap every single thing I've purchased.  *sigh*

For your amusement and entertainment, here are my friend Maureen and I with the 20 "gingerbread" houses we made from graham crackers for Red's class holiday party.  I was expecting about 2 hours of work and it became a 6 hour tour.  Never again!

Merry Christmas to all!
