Ella is officially 7! Her birthday was Wednesday. Caramel rolls are the birthday breakfast tradition...this year made by Gr'ma JoAnne when Thomas was born. (Hallelujah for grandmas and freezers!!:) We enjoyed them with milk out of the girls' new teacups from Austria (Thanks again to Gr'ma!) 
We're reading the American girl chapter book,"Felicity Learns A Lesson" at bedtime so the girls had fun saying "Thank you, I shall take no more tea" with their tea cup upside down and spoon on top just like Felicity!
Here are a few "Ella-isms" from the week...
After brushing her teeth at bedtime and swishing with flouride rinse, she commented...."Why can you eat after brushing your teeth in the morning, but you can't at night?" Hmmmm...good question.
At the supper table, she asked Tom completely out of the blue, "Isn't $45 a good deal, Dad?!" "$45 for what?" Tom replied. "I don't know...a toy maybe?" We wonder when she'll ask for this $45 thing...nice set-up with Dad though, don't you think??!!

Ella, $45.00 is DEFINITELY an incredible bargain! Happy belated birthday, Ella - I'm sorry I forgot to tell you that in person!
