The kids really want to make the cranberry bread recipe in the book, I'm not crazy about cranberries but the recipe looks easy enough. Maybe we'll make it for home economics on Wednesday.

Yes, we have a new President. Last Wednesday morning when the kids woke up they wanted to know who had won the election, When I told them Obama won, X4 said to me, "Mommie, we have to pray that he will take care of the babies", and that is exactly what we did!
