Our road twists and bends, but it never ends
A Christmas season housing boom has come to the monkey troop as Stella, Zuzu and Grant went with Sandie to a gingerbread building event at Grace. I can’t speak for Grant’s house in the hours since Sandie snapped this shot, but the girls have brought new meaning to the term being “eaten out of house and home.”
A sad morning. Stella checked on her beloved guinea pig only to discover it had passed away last night. Plenty of food and water. Comfortable in its cage. No solace to Stella. It breaks my heart to see her so sad.
Stella and I were up and out early this morning for All Region Band auditions. Auditions were held at Sealy High School–about 45 minutes west of Casa Moger.
Our table of band members were just a small contingent among the assembled multitude of band geeks gathered from across the region.
Even though most of those picked were 8th graders, Stella learned a lot from the experience. She is a winner because she took the lesson and left the loss behind.
I returned from my Austin trip to discover Stella had picked up a new skill. Her string art skills include overalls, jacob’s ladder and the broom. Last night, she tells me, Stella dreamt she could use her string to create real things. Maybe so. This morning she created a smile on me.
Crazy hair day at John Paul II Catholic School had my girls teased up into a pink blur. Hard to say which is cuter.
