It has been quite the busy month but we did manage to celebrate Sinterklaas Monday. This is one of our most favorite family traditions and the kids look forward to it every year. I'm sure we don't get it exactly right but we love it just the same. For years Joel told me Sinterklaas always brought a box of cereal until Aunt Lara informed me that it was actually Santa Claus that brought the box of cereal to the Beckstead household. Oh well, we can't change the tradition now! Morgan wasn't that enthusiastic about her nicely wrapped underwear and seemed to be running a fever. Well, five days later, we are still trying to recover from the flu. It has been a very long week but she finally seems to be coming around, thank goodness!
