Ode To January

I am going to write a poem about January.  

Ahh, January.  You are cold.  And often dreary.  And so, so long.

The End.

I didn't say it was going to be good.

I hope this video will download for you all, because this is kind of how I begin to feel during the long month of January.

Apparently my kids need a little more entertaining because I have many, many videos that are almost exactly like that.  But look!  I did entertain them!  Here they are playing with gloop (OK, Dustin actually did this with them, while I took a little rest in my room.  But I came in and watched them be entertained for a few minutes).  

I entertained them with science.  A foaming dragon to be precise.

 I taught Grant how to play a very tiny violin.

 Maren entertained herself by pulling her tooth out.

 The kids made a serious Lego World.  Very entertaining.

And Avery found a very large, entertaining pine cone.

And here is a funny story to entertain you all.  Today, a very polite neighbor girl said to me "Sister Wiberg, (we call each other brother and sister in our church) can you please get me a drink of water?"  Grant looked at me for a minute and then said, also very politely, "Sister Wiberg, can you please get me a drink of milk?"
Farewell January.
