{pretty, happy, funny, real}

Pretty
A Christmas Gift from Alice's Godparents, a beautiful statue of Our Lady.

 Christmas cards from friends and family.

Happy
 The past two days of cold cloudy rainy weather have been such a gift, because they made the gift of today so beautiful.

Funny
 Isaac thinks peek-a-boo is very funny.  (<--video link)

Real
 Homeschool late in the day, since that's when her brothers decided to nap and because it was sunny and she spent most of the day playing outside.

On a different subject, I am realizing that the paper dolls we gave Alice over during Christmastide require a lot more work than I gave any thought to. I've been carefully cutting, laminating, and reinforcing the dolls with Popsicle sticks (we have a history in this house of bent, stained, and ripped paper dolls) for days and as Alice patiently waits to actually be able to play with her dolls, I have just began to cut out their outfits and have not yet begun to make stands for them.
