Winter Poem About Snow

The snow is so white
It's a happy sight.
And I hope you like this poem
And in this home
We are nice and cozy warm.
The End.

Susan provided a list of rhymes for poem--otherwise it's straight from the mind of Sam. :-) It is dedicated to Xochitl, who will receive the original in the mail.

Quiet weekend. Ate at a Mehican restaurant with friends and with Sam in tow! Worked, too. Susan got a special book of placemats called Chicken Doodle Soup. Each placemat has a funny drawing on it of a food/animal pun (like chimps holding a piece of macaroni for Macaroni and Chimpanzees, or a snake looking like a straw in Strawberry Milksnakes), and then gives steps for doing the drawing yourself. A great diversion.


Sam had waffles twice today. Susan made Ebelskivers (she's sure to have a blog post on this soon). We played Chinese Checkers (Susan won--she's a shark. She also made him run laps in between turns to burn off energy). Napped while Sam watched a disk of Superfriends (I swear, I didn't make him watch it. He actually enjoys it). I did a failed science "experiment" while Sam used a wooden spoon to play eight tumblers with varying amounts of water in each. Oh--he went to a birthday party yesterday. It was actually in a home, which is a nice change. And despite being from 3-5 pm, the hostess made an incredible spread. Wow. Read some fun new books. Also read some from an old Tintin book. Those are a little harder. Slow moving and with layers which Sam doesn't really get. May hide that one in the hope he forgets about it.

More news as more events occur. (Guess that was obvious.)
