Learning Letters with the Season





Our preschool approach with the twins has been one focused on play and not a strict curriculum.  I did come across some fun printable activities from THIS BLOG that they are enjoying.  Here is one matching the letters in Merry Christmas.  I was amazed at how many of the letters they recognized.

Whew!

November has been a little overwhelming for me.  My best friend came to visit and we enjoyed having her here and showing her a little bit of Spain.  Having a familiar face made me homesick for the familiar.  I love living in Europe but I am ready for a taste of home.  I am finding comfort in my own little family, trying hard to rely on God's placement and plan for me.  I am so thankful for little hands to hold, a husband who comforts me no matter my mood, friends becoming family away from home and the Internet to keep in contact.  Esp. this last week when I couldn't jump on plane to be with my sister and family during the birth of my nephew.  He is doing well but for a minute he was having a hard time. 

Today I am so thankful for being able to stream radio online that feels like home.  My favorite Station

I am thankful for my twinsees, who in the midst of 3 year old tantrums still want me to comfort them by holding them, turning lights on for them and make me make believe pizzas 200 times a day!

Praying Mantis


This was our morning visitor.  Totally fitting since my daughter is reading about insects this week in science.  What was today's topic?  Praying Mantis, to be exact.  We were provided with a visual to fit her reading.  Totally Awesome!!!!
