Day Sixty 2013

Grandson Knox has no need of toys to amuse him. He’d rather play with anything that isn’t a toy. He sat on his ‘Pa’s’ lap for probably thirty minutes this evening, putting pens and pencils in this mug. Neil kept taking some back out, and Knox was happy to put them back in.
 
It's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them.

Day Three Hundred Twenty Five 2012

The first grade classes at grandson Elijah’s school performed a Thanksgiving play this morning. We really enjoyed it. Elijah is the Pilgrim in the top row looking at Granny’s camera.

Pilgrim Elijah—hunter of turkeys.

Student Elijah at his desk in his classroom, wishing he could leave school early today. No deal on that one, but at least he has a three day Thanksgiving vacation, plus the weekend, to look forward to. Sweet!
