Brought To You By the Junior Spokesmen for Literacy & Narcolepy

Lots to catch up on* - but first, feast your eyes upon two lovely gifts from a coworker & friend....
.

For Eleni, there was this creature. I loves him, he's so soft. He's handmade, and his name if Breetzer, but I've rechristened him Frederick.
.

Here he is, helping prop El on her side. Doesn't he look like a Frederick?
.
Amoryn got a box set of five books. I don't think I can use enough exclamation points to clearly illustrate how she feels about this, but it's pretty darn cool. Her box of books has been the first choice to play with ever since she opened them.

As a plus, we had one of the books - Chrysanthemum - but it had suffered serious damage during a nap**, then additional injury during a bout of the flu. So I'm pleased that we have a copy again, it's a great little story.

.

And some gratuitous sleepy baby footage - this was an hour past when she was supposed to eat, and I'd been gently bugging her for about half an hour. All goat noises are genuine El sounds, btw.

.

Speaking of sleepy goats, I'd better go & make some hay while the sun is shining & the girls are napping...

.

.

*No, there's not really anything huge & enormous... just scads of adorable photos of the girls with a variety of family members...

**This was before we had thoroughly drilled into Am's head that books are Special, & Important, & it's Very Bad to rip them, ever.
