3. Sadly and gladly, no Little Star

Sadly. cause I love books, but gladly because the kids are trained to use the library so I don't have to buy them. The younger one buys books thru school book club and he picks them out himself.

Have spent all the bucks on snowsuits, boots, clothes, toys, etc. But the piece de reistance (help! somebody French) is a big jar of Kretchner's Wheat Germ that the 7-yr old is always bumming spoonfuls from our refrigerator. Why his parents don't buy it I don't know. Will put it in a shoe box and wrap it..he will get a big kick out of it.
