Miriam receives more gifts than the rest of us and it comes as no surprise to us when she's given a book or two.
What did surprise us was the last page of this Miffy book:
Some parents complain that it's inappropriate. Our response was along the lines of "can you believe they put that in there?" followed by laughter whenever we saw the book or explained to someone what's in it.
On a side note, we took Miriam & Elias on their first visit to Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus a couple of weekends ago. Neither one of them were particularly excited, though Miriam did show some interest in the animals, including the Bengal Tigers who were "displaying their natural behaviors to patrons":
I love the swat at the beginning of the video. I found myself almost wishing to see something tragic happen just to change the pace of things. Maybe next time.

We just returned from Florida after spending the past four days with the Walker extended family for the biannual family reunion/Thanksgiving/Christmas trip. We're exhausted and still full. :)
We're going to put some pictures up when we get a free minute this week.
It was great spending time with everyone & we won't wait until the next to see everyone.
When we returned, I had a letter waiting for me from an old friend that I haven't seen in a number of years and that I'd been trying to run down. It was the perfect ending to a great break. :)

hello katie! :)
I just wanted to write a quick note in case you made it here...we need to start using this space more.
Yesterday was OK, for a birthday. Nothing too exciting about being at work, you know? We had a Thanksgiving potluck lunch yesterday at the office, so that made the day feel a bit special.
Since MG's birthday is next week, we're going to celebrate both of them this weekend. Some sushi and a dollar movie may not sound very fun/romantic to many, but that's what we're doing.
I have work to do, so that's it for now.
