Geburtstags Kind

Anna turned 3 this past weekend! Her birthdays have become something of a worldwide celebration.....Malawi, Canada, Germany! And those were just the first 3 ! I am forever amazed at the genius of German handicrafts! For Anna's birthday the Synod's Seminary President who resides in our building made her this "Acorn man"......and I felt it was the best gift of all! She played quite a long time taking his acorn topped hat on and off ! I also feel blessed to again live in a land where wooden toys can be bought at smart prices! Meanwhile, our german guests thought my "american BROWNIE cake in the shape of a butterly" was so creative....americans always hold one simple treasure in impressing those from other lands.......BROWNIES! They never cease to be amazed at this delicacy!
