Daddy, it's an 8 step marble run. LOOK.

waiting for daddy

Today was so windy the sky was filled with leaves. We spent a good amount of time chasing down some colorful lovelies and making bouquets. Once we warmed up with a cup of tea we set to work on our "gratitude garden". All of us had the same idea....we are so thankful for our family. Neve couldn't write but really wanted to do her leaf on her own. So she drew each one of taking great care in saving space so we'd all fit.

Thanks to Granny Anna for punching the leaves and sending them along. Thank you to Ms. Jennifer for the inspiration. We can't wait for daddy to return so we can share and he can have a turn.
