Well, I can now say that I recommend opting for stitches over glue when given the chance. Elspeth seemed okay until Saturday morning. That is when there was some blood on cleaning. Again today. She is being a trooper but it hurts as her hair is caught in the tape. Guess we are heading back to the doctor’s. Sigh. On Wednesday she wrote a note to her teacher explaining what had happened. It is very cute. Makes me smile.
In amidst all of the drama there have been good things as well. Yesterday the whole family went to see the pantomime Peter Pan. It was hilarious for both the kids and adults. Top that off with time spent with cousins, uncle, aunt and grandparents and you have a great time. A great early Christmas gift.
This afternoon was the annual Advent Craft Dinner at church. The girls LOVE it! They spend time doing crafts and being part of the church community. Top that off with dinner, ample dessert and a family centered worship service and it is a sure fire success. A great way to kick off advent…well, that and their Playmobile calendars.
The evenings work…aside from the cookies which disappeared in a flash.
