Last night we took inventory of what we have in the house for presents. We came up short. Most of our Christmas shopping was done online, and as boxes arrived I would put them in the garage. This worked out well enough because I could easily stack boxes and everything was out of the way…

Last week it was my 3rd and 4th graders performing for their winter concert. This week it was my preschooler and Kindergartener. Only the preschooler was sick.

In the afternoon there as the championship meet and in the evening was the sleepover. Where Déla has her gymnastics there are three different locations. There are different levels…
