"Goody That..."
Sadie has a new phrase that makes me smile. She says "Goody that..." which means "I'm glad that...". So instead of "I'm glad my finger doesn't hurt anymore.", she would say "Goody that my finger doesn't hurt anymore."
Using her phrase I feel "Goody that...
Using her phrase I feel "Goody that...
...Christmas Tree skirts twirl really well.
...That snow can be so fun, you don't even mind being buried in it
And goody that God has created such a variety of good things to enjoy right outside our window

Happy New Year
Happy New Year from the Spence's.
We've been in VA for the past 6 days and did lots of celebrating - 2 Christmas's and Noelle's 7th birthday. It's always a lot of fun. Full of laughing and indulging. Now we're back and ready to settle into our normal routine again. I have lots of Christmas and Birthday pictures to share on my next post.

No Self-Esteem Issues Here
Oh yes, I have a blog...we've been busy with all things Christmas and a few not-so-festive things like the stomach bug so my blogging has been neglected.
In the past month Noelle has made 2 comments that really capture her current attitude - the word 'princess' comes to mind.
1) We wrote letters to Santa Claus this year. Not that the girls believe in Santa but it seemed like a festive thing to do and Noelle got to practice her letter writing. I told her that one of the things she needed to include in her letter was a rating of herself. She had to tell Santa, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, how good she was this year. She readily replied, "Oh, I'm a 10!"
2) I had a parent-teacher conference a few weeks ago and before I left for school I asked Noelle what I should expect her teacher to tell me. She confidently said "She'll say, 'Noelle's awesome.' and that will be the end."
