New Year, New Books

Patrick is on the mend (and nursing again), but now Elise has been blowing her nose all day. Guess that is normal this time of year. Despite the colds, this past Saturday we were feeling pretty well so we went to the bookstore. (We also had to get out of the house because two real estate agents were showing our house to buyers that morning and afternoon.) We had a fun hour or so at Barnes & Noble using some gift cards from relatives. Erick bought some hardback classic books. We also got Blueberries for Sal, Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel, and A Light in the Attic for the children. Erick has his edition of Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein from when he was little. Elise loves to read it with him. She calls it “Daddy Poems.” We thought she would like this new one, too, and she does.

  1. I love catching up on your news through the blog. Like email, it helps me feel closer to you all even though we’re miles apart. Jeanette and Jason have a blog site that Jeanette mostly uses, and it’s always great fun to hear what she’s up to. But still the best is seeing you all in person.
