Before 7 am this morning, Drew had already unwrapped and put on his Christmas Eve jammies. Drew’s defense: “What’s wrong? The package said open on Christmas Eve and TODAY is Christmas Eve!!!”
Drew: "Mom, can I make you a present for Christmas Eve?"
Me: "Umm, sure!"
Drew: "Can I use one of my old socks?"
Me: "Umm...."
Morley left some chocolates with a much-needed reminder for the kids to use kind words.
Drew reported: “Mom, you have to use sweet words with me cuz you love me and Morley said so.”
Not sure the message got through to him.

Drew interrupted the dinner prayer and said, "You know at the end of the prayer you say, 'Name of Jesus Christ, Amen'? Don't say that part. Instead, say 'Happy New Year!'"
Miriam: "Why?"
Drew: "'Cause it's for Christmas!"

where in the heck did you find that painting? LOL!
Tess always makes food look so GOOD.
OK, maybe my allusion to the painting was a little obscure. It's a famous painting by Andrew Wyeth--click on the link entitled "Tess' World." I'm wondering now if that's where Elmo got the name for his show.
When I took that picture, the painting came to mind.
I've got a picture of Miriam, looking very similar to the spaghetti-enhanced Tess! I miss you, Tess!
Love, Dipsy
I am loving the spaghetti enhanced Tess - mainly because I don't have to clean it up :0) Oh the messes... Has she tried blueberries? I eat them everyday too. Maybe you should try the dried ones. hee hee
I love what I can see of your new kitchen table.
Love, Dipsy
