Menu Plan: March 11 - March 17
We had ribbon sandwiches, potato salad, princess punch, layer cake and tea. There was lots of laughter, loads of earrings, lip gloss, nail polish, pendants, tea sets. One of her friends even made her a pink and green pillow case. Dominic has been carving soap figures lately and made a whole menagerie for Amira. It was really all the things an eight year old girl could dream of. It was a lovely day, and I'm so glad we were able to make it happen for Amira. Rich took the boys off to eat sandwiches and watch the Incredibles so we ladies could have the house to ourselves.
We are entering the third week of Lent with a couple repeats and a day off from our Lenten fast with St. Patrick's Day this weekend. Our schedule and life this week threw off our meals a couple of the days, so we are trying again this week.
