Milestones for Zachary

Zach lost his first tooth this morning, it just popped out. He is pretty excited, as he was beginning to wonder if it would ever happen!
The children are all home today as we have a "snow" day; all the primary and intermediate schools are closed, although everything else seems to be running. I would have had Hannah and Janine home today anyway; there is a nasty sore throat going around and Janine in particular is miserable today.
So we are keeping warm inside, Katarina has done some baking and I am making soup and trying to write Sunday's sermon...
