"Just the size for me"

Last week Gigi and Gramps offered us their little kids table since they are moving and wouldn't have room for it.  At first we didn't think it would fit, but then decided it was more important for the boys to have a table/play/work space at their level so we took the piano down and put the table there instead.  They have been absolutely LOVING it!  They eat breakfast, lunch and snacks there, bring their toys there, fix puzzles, read books and Brandon tells anyone who walks in the door to come see the "just the size for me table".  (He has also taken to asking if I have other things "just Brandon's size".)  It's been quite a blessing in our lives.



Last week Thursday I told Brandon we would be putting up our Christmas tree in a couple days since he had been noticing them all over town and asking when we would have one.  After I told him he decided in his little head that it was going to snow then.  It was one of those days when all three of us were fighting another cold and didn't have a whole lot of energy so I pulled out the water paints and some coffee filters and we made snow flakes instead of anticipating real snow--which made us all happy!



We let the coffee filters dry for a couple hours and then after rest time for Brandon, while Micah was still sleeping, we cut the snow flakes together.  He is really starting to get the hang of using a scissors and did a great job!





Blessings on the rest of your week.
