1) homemade pumpkin purée is the best.
Esme helped me gut and roast our two pretty Cinderella pumpkins that I bought for decoration. We scooped and blended it up into 5 quarts of vibrant pumpkin puree!
2) Sloane reading poetry is the best.
My mima read these poems to me (and my siblings) as a child and I can still recite bed in summertime. I love hearing Robert Louis Stevenson’s treasures roll out of little Sloanie’s mouth.
3) Veterans and class parades and fun third grade teachers are the best. Soren’s class did a study on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and they created floats of their own. Sweet Soren made his float a Veteran. I miss being Soren’s homeschool teacher. He’s earnest and delightful and a lot of fun to learn with. He did a worksheet about veterans at school and took it to our neighbor, Terry. Terry showed him photos and his old uniform from his years in the service.
4) the willardson ghetto Christmas lights are the best. We’ve blown 2 fuses and the garage outlets now are not working. They only go halfway across the garage. They are glass and so fragile it’s ridiculous. We’ve already replaced 4 broken bulbs this year. But we love them.
5) white chocolate dipped, sprinkled ginger softies for the orchestra concessions bake sale are the best. I’m doing my best to be a cool SBO mom and attend parent meetings and volunteer for stuff. I worked at all region auditions, baked a few dozen of these beauties for the concert, and procured some products for the silent auction.
6) Metfield Ward Primary Programs are the best.
7) neighbor kids growing up together is the best.
8) a November bell pepper garden harvest is the best!

9) getting closer to being a forever family is the best!
Just 4 reams of paper for some light reading material. I am 75% through with this disclosure packet. The more I read, the more angry I get that my children are still trapped in foster care.
10) Quincy in a romper is the best! Q kindly asked if I could find her “a black romper to wear to her orchestra concert tonight.” I accepted the challenge and actually found one! The only one in the store, in fact. And she looked adorable. This girl loves fashion and pulls off the cutest outfits. I love her style and her confidence.
