january 3rd - saturdays are for brunch, rest, and correspondence

One benefit of early risers in our neighborhood is that you can get a jump on everyone else by getting to the brunch spots before the line is out the door.  We went to Honey's on South this morning...Alex got his pancakes with powdered sugar AND syrup...life is good.  Gemma spent the day lounging and catching up on reading, while Alex helped Mommy write out Christmas Thank You cards.  He wrote in every one...in his own language but the fundamentals successfully instilled.
