I think graham crackers are pretty easy to chop though, because youngest seemed to be doing fine without any help! For once! ;) Same here…usually!

Thanks for sharing that verse from Job, Mom. I can imagine what treasures he was talking about...after a day like today! Amy...how to describe graham crackers...hm. They are rectangular and brittle, with lines along which you can break each rectangle into four smaller crackers. Here in the states we can get them in "honey grahams", "cinnamon grahams" and "chocolate grahams"...they are what we use in "graham cracker" crusts for cheesecakes, pudding pies, and my kids like them as a snack plain, or spread with frosting! ;) Merry Christmas Mom and Amy!

It wasn't bad at all coming down from all the busyness and noise and todo that usually goes on at our house at this time of year. We only got 5" of snow...it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Job asks the question, "Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow?" and that got me brainstorming with distant friends about that. God bless you all I sense strongly the peace of Christmas this year. Isa. 26:3 to all!
