Hermine and I made homemade play dough last week and grandma joined in on the fun. I've never seen anyone so proud of her cookie cutter cutouts.

Sarah,
Didn't anyone tell you to wear full shoes when you chop wood? More likely to keep your toes if the ax slips. That's a good way to build some muscle in the upper body. Too bad we have gas logs but I'm sure Uncle Paul would be glad to put you to work cutting wood. I'll have to send more cookie cutters for the play doh fun.
Love,
Mom
