Snuggly stories

We had a little bit of snuggly story time with Grandpa Heidt at Christmas!

Myself

No! No! I do it myself! I not need your help!

A snowman

Look! I made a snowman with my lunch! Will you take a picture?

In which Amelia is delighted by math

Amelia loves math. I do not understand where I have gone wrong in raising my Xhosa, but this girl adores mathematics (actual, I kid. I a terribly proud of my girl and her affinity for math. Math was not ever a subject that made my heart skip a beat, so I don't totally understand her thinking, but I am so, so proud of her. I wouldn't change a thing.

The minute she got off the bus for her winter break, she was at the table, doing math problems she made up herself. When I suggested so go ahead and give the math a rest, she became more determined to do math. This brought on a fit of giggling which further developed into fall on the floor laughter as I pretended to be aghast by her continued math behavior.

A relaxing bedtime routine

Just one of the many ways we unwind and ready ourselves for sleep.

I cannot explain

Because I do not understand what is happening here. But, we have nativity figurines and Mr Potato head.

I have no idea

I have no idea what is happening here. It involves the angel from our nativity and many miscellaneous Mr Potato head parts.
