Paper Airplanes

Anthony came home from school with an armful of paper airplanes that he and his friend, Liam, had made. Most were simply folded in half - but we had hours of fun "flying" them outside!

You're One of The Family Now!

Anthony loves dogs. Real and stuffed.

His favorite stuffed dog is Furry, a Golden Retriever we "rescued" from IKEA.

Some time before Christmas, when listing some of the presents he would like to receive from Santa, he included, "and a collar for Furry - one with bones on it."

So, imagine his surprise when, sure enough, there was a package under the tree addressed To: Furry, From: Santa.

Yes, a red collar with a dog bone pattern. Anthony was so excited and kept exclaiming, "How did Santa know?" We told him that Santa is always watching and listening.

Then he slipped it over Furry's head and said, "There, Furry. Now you're one of the family."
