  • Typical "snapshot" of Daniel and Jonathan.  Daniel loves to have his fingers in his mouth, unless there is food handy.  And Jonathan has decided that he can smile now when his picture is taken.  So, here is a typical smile for the camera....The other thing that Jonathan loves to do is look for shapes of things.  Last night at the supper table he told us all about pentagons, hexagons, rectangles, squares, circles and more heptagons, and other "gons" ............and on and on.  When he was here on Monday and we went in the back yard, he ran around pointing out all the circle shapes, the table, the stump of a tree, more tables, wheels, etc.  He had a lot of fun.

    It was a sewing day today and a good day to be inside out of the wind with pollen flying around.  And soon we are having a friend over for dinner and roast chicken, potato casserole, green beans and lemon bars will be on the menu.  Recipe for the chicken is from Epicurious,  the potato casserole from Mom Meyer, green beans from our garden (last summer) and lemon bar recipe from Karen Cartmell.  All in all, lots of yummy food with recipes from different people.  And a great visit on the phone from my daughter-in-law, Megan, (updates on granddaughter, Analiese), conversation over tea with my hubby, sewing with sister Beth and friend, Janet, another phone conversation with daughter Erin and another phone conversation with other daughter -in-law Heather and yes you can say it was a good day!
