Judah and Levi's Mom -- Laura In 1983, Germany

 

 ****************************
Flashback

One of my favorite photos. The original photo, taken in 1983, has faded quite a bit, but now it's on digital and "saved."

From left to right, Drew, a family friend, age 4; our younger daughter, Laura, less than a year old; and her old sister, Kiri, about four years old, when we were stationed in Germany. It's hard to believe, but we set one bedroom completely aside for Lego.

What make this photo so precious: look how Laura is so focused on what her older sister is doing with her Lego pieces.  

Lego Trains -- December 19, 2019

Two sets bought at local Lego re-sale store. One was a "custom" set (the Norfolk Southern) and the other was a "regular" Lego set. One set was $180; the second set was $150. Because of the large purchase, 30% was taken off the less expensive, or in other words, the $150 set was acquired for $105 (plus state sales tax of about 8%).
