Okay, I know I overdo it with the exclaimation marks. I'll work on it!!!! Just kidding. Anyway, I wanted to share that God is answering our prayers that Ephraim has been wearing his bi-focals without much complaint. This is so good! Praise the LORD!
Also, I have been meaning to post some pictures of the boys enjoying the creative process. A few weeks ago, we had a hand-out to the mothers at BSF encouraging the gift of creativity and imagination. I have been trying to be diligent since then to make sure the boys have plenty of outlets to use their God-given gifts.
Above are pictures from the creative process and a few of Ephraim in his new glasses. He really does look handsome. The boys are both very handsome and creative. If I do say so myself!
Ephraim and I made shortbread dough the other day and haven't had a chance to bake them yet. Going to do cut out cookies. The recipe came from my mother's McCalls cookbook. Seriously worn, but well loved. I love finding the little scribbled menus and notes throughout her cookbook. Scraps of paper tucked inside it. Even a letter from my brother to my mother during his post-college, pre-marriage days. True treasures in this book. I want my kids to feel that way about my Bible, because you know I don't have a cook book that I use the same way my mother did. I have some of her Bibles too and it is just as much of a treasure hunt in those!
Enjoy the pictures!

I guess you should call me" Aunt Fanny."
Aunt Fanny it is then! We are a fan of Auntie Ria! If memory serves me correctly, the round table that we used at 639 as a dining room table before Grandmother's suite was Aunt Fannie's table.
