Happy Father’s Day, DD! (Sam’s favorite nickname for her Daddy)
Sam worked very hard to give Mark a special day. She made him some crafty things…
…including this custom puzzle.
When she wanted to pick out a card, she chose a graduation card that said, Congratulations! on it. She added “You Won the Best Daddy in the World Award!” I thought she was very clever and very sweet.
At school, she wrote a list of all the things about her Dad that she loves.
Mark got some nice gifts, including this headphones holder.
Sam helped him with his puzzle. Daddy is not much of a puzzle doer. That’s more my thing.
Sam had a secret surprise for us. While she was at Grandmom’s the night before, she baked cupcakes. Grandmom said other than separating the eggs, Sam did the entire thing herself!
Happy Father’s Day to the best dad ever!!

Pieces that is. Mark and Sam have been working on assembling this Lego set of the Apollo Saturn V for a while now. He got it for Christmas and we knew it would take a long time because of the number of pieces, and also how complex it is. As any Lego builder knows, for bigger sets, and even some not so big sets, the pieces are in numbered bags so that you don’t have a mass of pieces all at once to work with. You follow the instructions and open the bags in stages. This set had 12 bags. That’s a lot! They worked on it on and off for months, but finally finished it. Congratulations! That’s the biggest Lego set either one of them has assembled!

Sam has a million books, which I am fine with, but honestly, she needed to get rid of some. Her room is SO FULL, and there are books stacked on the floor, which I can’t stand, because there is no room in her bookcase. A lot of the books she is way past as far as her reading ability, and we will never read them, so I asked her to PLEASE get rid of some. Well, she must have been in the right kind of mood because when she was done, she had chosen over 100 books! I was so proud of her. We wound up selling them and I gave her some money for her efforts. Maybe realizing if I sell her stuff and she can get some cold, hard cash, it will make her more willing to part with her things!

For Christmas, Sam got a geode kit and had never gotten around to playing with it yet. She decided it was finally time to crack that thing open! Mark and Sam got busy chiseling and hammering away. Look at those long legs! This kid is growing like a weed!
Geodes! Shiny rocks. What more could a girl want? Isn’t that all diamonds are, after all!
