Bumper Stickers



These are like the two bumper stickers I have on my car. Usually nobody really says anything to me about them, however someone did today.
I had my economics exam this morning and stopped at Meijer for white melting chocolate. I was walking up to my car when the lady in the car next to me gets out and says hi. So far this was not unusual - quite often people say hi to each other even when they don't know the other person. So, I unlock my car and go to get in when she says,
"I just wanted to tell you that my Boss is a Jewish Carpenter too, and my daughter is in the army. When I saw your bumper stickers my heart just soared!"
I thought that it was so cool that she took the time to stop wait for me to get back to my car to tell me that. I think that she had already been in the store and was leaving when she saw my car and decided to wait for me. People don't usually do things like that anymore these days. It made my day just a little bit better!

Cleo and the Christmas Tree



Mom took these pictures the other night when Cleo was being naughty. I know that is a surprising thought since Cleo is never naughty, but it did happen!
I just thought that she looked so cute under the tree!
