I know I’ve been flooding you with new posts while we’ve been on Christmas break from homeschooling, but I promise you’ll get a bit of a break (other than my favorite Christmas poem I scheduled for this evening) for the next couple of days. We’re heading south to my parents’ house this afternoon (only 1/2 hour south, but we’re staying over to have Christmas morning there, too) and so I won’t be online until probably late Christmas night. I hope all of you who are celebrating have a wonderful and blessed Christmas – and may there be lots of books under your Christmas tree.
