Thanksgiving

It's a long way to Kansas! We found the trip worth it. A couple special treats staying in hotels, and lots of time with many different relatives. We got to spend time with the newest baby and the oldest Oma we know! I will add more pictures later, but here is a start.

Snow Queen

M. played a daisy and Princess Dawndrell in the Snow Queen last weekend. It was a really cute version of the fairy tale.

Some quotes to remember

Q: Mommy, did you know that when you hold fastness inside your body, it just gets faster and faster?
M: No, so does that mean when you run, you run extra fast?
Q: Yes, and I've been storing up my fastness for about a week.
M: Wow, you must be getting really fast, then.
Q: Yeah, if I started running, I would run about 60 miles per hour.
M: Wow! That's fast.
Q: But, it only happens in emergencies. There has to be a real emergency for it to work.

G: Mommy, do you believe that God protects us from our fears?
M: Why don't you tell me what you believe.
G: I believe that God knows we can only overcome our fears ourselves, and that when we do, we make God more real.

M: Mommy, do you know why I like acting in plays?
M: Please tell me.
M: I like to try out being someone unlike myself and see what it's like.
