Epiphany Fun

 We had a wonderful low-key Epiphany.
I thought it would be nice to have the kids each open a present on Epiphany.
 Sweet Kiara received
 Tasha Tudor's 1 is One .
Brigid loved her book
 Gianna has been begging to paint and paint...
 so she got a paint book. 
It has super cute stories and nice firm paper - extra bonus!
 Brech Earl wasn't as excited to open his book.
 Little Bear's Visit by Else Holmelund Minarik.
He was sure he couldn't read it, but it turns out he can!
He loved the book, even if his mother made him read it out loud.
The rest of boys loved their books.
 Rex got Life of a Gladiator.
 Cormac was sure he knew what he was getting.
 Mom surprised him with Ancient Rome.
(These are all choose your own adventure type books.)
 On the other hand...Stephen knew exactly which one I picked for him.
 "I'm gonna get....wait for it....yup, Life as a Viking."
 Ummm, yah, Blase.
ha ha ha ha
Ancient Greece for Blase.
For the next twenty minutes all I heard from him was, "Oh man, died again."
Finally I asked him if he thought he was going to live at all in that book.
We decided with all Ancient Greece has contributed to society, it wasn't worth living there, since you couldn't live regardless of what you did.  ha ha ha
