a winter afternoon

3:20 pm - reading Finn's book, Mountain Creatures, from his school library


3:45 pm - searching for state quarters and happily finding a wheat penny and a Canadian penny


4:00 pm - Finn's little hand-knit sock feet as he kneels at the couch playing with his cars


4:30 pm - Elizabeth's making pipe cleaner art from this book


5:00 pm - Finn and I start reading Moominland Midwinter


5:30 pm - baked sweet potato dinner (the kids have theirs with butter, cinnamon, and a touch of brown sugar; mine has butter, cumin, salt, and a slight pinch of cayenne pepper)


6:15 pm - an after-dinner game of Trouble by candlelight
