Joyful Impressions: Week 3

We’re making more memories over at chez moi.  Tons of fun, lots of friends, and very yummy…. you know, the best kinds of memories!
EJ has a little group of friends who happen to be mostly girls.  And we’ve had them over at other holidays to decorate cookies together… I would love for this to be [...]

Making Memories…

Last week was our “M” week…. and it’s been extended into this week as well.  I didn’t get a chance to do many things with EJ surrounding the letter M (or take any pictures, either)… except we are making many memories together.

Joyful Impressions: Week 2

I LOVE CHRISTMAS. I do, I love it! And I think I’m passing that love onto Lydia. She is SO excited about everything Christmas. The first morning we had our tree up, I let her watch a Christmas movie while she ate breakfast. She turned around and said to me, “Is it Christmas today?” The [...]

Joyful Impressions: Week 1

Welcome to our month of Joyful Impressions!
So I had a bit of an unintentional break from things last week – no blogging, no letters, no verses… but I’m back in the swing of things!  My week off did give me a chance to think about some of the special things I’m going to do with [...]

The W that almost Wasn’t…

So, I’ve had big plans for the letter “w”. There are so many awesome words, Lydia and I have been making a list all week. (It includes walrus and Wall-E.) Anyway, the main thing I wanted to do was “WEEK” and learn the days of the week.
I had it all planned out. I asked one [...]
