It was a sunny 66 degrees today.

Schäfer and I had a nice snuggle & reading time before preschool. This is his favorite story to read right now. It’s amazing how he asks so many detailed questions. “Let’s read the ‘Jesus died’ story!”

This is where the project derailed for FIVE weeks.

Oh yes. I’ve started and stopped the project twice,

What is the December Daily?
