TOG Year 4 Week 34

It really is a weird coincidence that we were studying the eight years of George W. Bush's presidency.  Hoopla of this past week has made this week's studies much closer to home.  Princess E and S were so young when 9/11 happened.  Yet, they have been impacted by it as all of us have been.  No matter what your stance is on how things went down, or whether there is closure given in photographic form, the truth is that God has orchestrated all things to come together for His purposes.  And we rejoice that His plans have included a modicum of retribution for those directly affected by 9/11.

Princess M - PreTOGger
One of Princess M's favorite shows to watch is Little Einsteins.  She knows the theme song by heart and is so funny to watch when it is on.  I like this show because it combines art and music throughout the show.  But she also still has an affinity for "Monkey George" as she calls him.  She usually gets to watch one half hour show while I work on the first part of Princess L's school.
