Musings

Last week was Grandparents' day at my girls' school. My mom joined Eliza and Libby for lunch. They have been looking forward to it and planning it for quite sometime. My mom told them she would bring them lunch, so Libby put in her request for Paradise Pasta at Paradise Bakery with a snickerdoodle cookie and Eliza changed her mind last minute from Subway to orange chicken at Panda Express with a peanut butter cookie. My mom made the cutest personalized bags to put their lunches in and she also bought each of them a pack of Silly Bandz and put in their bag. They were so surprised and excited. Libby's lunch was first and she didn't want to sit at the special table for grandparents that had a tablecloth and balloons, etc. She just wanted to sit at the regular lunch table, so that is what they did! Eliza joined them and they enjoyed a fun lunch. Brian's dad was there with Luke, so they got to eat with him, too. What a memorable day!

Eliza gave our family home evening lesson on Monday night. She is a natural. I tell her that she is going to make an amazing missionary one day! She says she wants to go to Paris. :) But she taught about prayer and she got a bunch of pictures from the gospel file that related to prayer and she talked about each one. It was just really cute how she made it flow.

Right now my girls are taking a Young Rembrandts art class after school. So far they have drawn a really colorful bat. They did a great job on it. I'll have to scan their drawings and post them.
