Today's Tidbits II


At church today Elias ran up to the director of children's ministries and said "God keeps us safe!" (their first memory verse from this fall).

After church we played in the snow a little. It was nice and sunny, but more importantly, the single-digit temperatures we've been dealing with lately have departed. Elias likes stomping on top of the snow and occasionally falling through. I took out the little disk sled I got, and Elias did his first sledding in the front yard. He was of course fearless, but after just a couple runs was more interested in taking off in search of the neighbors' horses. We haven't seen them all winter, but he still asks about them in some capacity several times every day.


After a more-reasonable (2.5hr) nap today, we made muffins.  Elias puts the paper cups in the tin, adds the mix and milk, and madly stirs it, all while trying to keep me from "interfering."

As we were sitting down to dinner, Elias spelt his name!  This is actually his second spelling feat:  he already spells "action" along to his "Kids in Action" CD.
