I feel so bad for not posting sooner.  Life has been busy as usual, but things are so good.   The girls are doing fantastic in school.  I am so proud of them. They are working on a Christmas musical with their after school program at a neighbourhood church.  Benjamin is doing great to.  He's been healthy so far, which we are so thankful for.   I hope this is a preview to what our winter is going to be like.  He's talking more and more every day.  He makes me laugh.  Right now he is obsessed with Eric Carle and we spend a lot of time reading books.  He asks me almost everyday to go to chapters.  He loves it there, he gets to read all the books and play with the toys, its great.  Needless to say, I have a stack of Eric Carle books sitting in my closet ready for Christmas.   He'll love them.   We have nothing else going on around here...we're just gearing up for the holiday season.  I love this time of year.  Its a fantastic time for family, friends, reflection and thankfulness.   Its going to be a good Christmas.
