Not everyone has an Uncle Crunchy...but everyone should (be so lucky!)

This is a blast from our recent arctic (okay,Ohio)visit, but it deserves a post.

When we were in the States, Spring was dawning, and with it, the weather was warming. There were 2 girls in Ohio who were sad the mounds of snow were melting. H and Z were so very excited to be in this winter wonderland that they could barely stand to think about the snow being melted when we returned to Ohio after a trip to Florida.

But Uncle Crunchy had a plan..........he SAVED them a snowperson in his freezer! Isn't he the bestest???????????? It was so wonderful! Every girl should have a Crunchman!

Uncle Crunchy~ A role model for keeping the little kid inside all of us alive and well! We should all be able to recall getting a snowman out of the freezer! Thank you for being such a great friend to big and little kids who are near and dear....and temporarily far from home.

Have a Very Merry Un-birthday to you, to you....

The tallest of the small is 6.5 years old. We had the usual half-birthday fun. At school, on her half-birthday, one of her friends told her that half birthdays aren't real. She mentioned this to me when she got off the bus. Then she asked me if half birthdays are "real." Hmmmmm. "What do you think?" I asked her (love that parenting technique). Well, she explained that lots of people don't celebrate their half birthdays, most people probably. But since we do, they are real for us. Sounds good to me : ) You get to celebrate their lives twice as many times- how can I resist, besides, it involves CAKE people! Happy half-birthday!
