Bug's Roman Soldier

For anyone that blogs, especially those of us that blog almost daily, you can understand how we have a tendency to rate things in terms of "blog worthiness". Get a new sweater for your birthday... not blog worthy. By a wool sweater at Goodwill, felt it, and turn it into a doll crib... blog worthy. Go out to a 5 star restaurant... not blog worthy. Bake a gluten free cake... blog worthy. Michelle and I can't help it. When we do something, we are apt to grab our cameras and say, "We can blog about this."

This morning, 7 year old Bug announced he was going to make a Roman soldier (they are studying Ancient Rome right now). He asked for access to my felt scraps and pegs. With very little help, he made himself a Roman soldier. He was very proud of it when he was done... so proud that he turned to me and said, "You can blog about this, Gammy." 

They went home... I made corned beef and cabbage for St. Patrick's Day... and they came back later for dinner. When they returned, he was rather disappointed that I had not put his Roman soldier up yet. So... I am very proud to share with everyone, his Roman soldier... and, yes, Bug, it is blog worthy!
