Now look!

Hi Sibyl,

I want to show you how the snow looked last night as the storm
was ending toward night time. Then, I will show you how
it looked this morning.

It will be so lovely to see you again.

Birds in the snow

Hi Sibyl,

It's still snowing here. Grandpa Charlie and I fed
the birds. The birds came flocking for the seeds
and the suet. Have a look.

Snow!

Hi Sibyl,

We are having a blizzard here today. A blizzard is a storm
with lots of snow. Grandpa Charlie has been out shoveling,
and I was awake in the middle of the night to see the snow
on all the lights.

Have a look. And more later.

Love,

Decorating the tree

Hi Sibyl,

We have decorated our Christmas tree with lots of lights and ornaments.

First I'm going to show you how we put the lights and balls on the tree.
Then I will show you the ornaments, the two videos.

Have a look!

It's snowing here, and we are thinking of how wonderful it will be to
have you here with us.

I will send you pictures of the snow soon.

Love,

Christmas tree

Hi Sibyl,

Grandpa Charlie and I went to get our Christmas tree. We put it
in the car to bring home. Then Grandpa Charlie put it on a stand
and brought it into the house. Next, we will decorate it.

Have a look.

We are so happy that you are coming to our house soon.

Love,

Stocking

Hi Sibyl,

It's only going to be a week before we can see you here. Grandpa Charlie
and I are very excited about it. We will have a wonderful Christmas together.

I have a stocking for you. It has a big S for Sibyl and lots of little bells. You
will hang it by the fireplace on Christmas Eve. Perhaps there will be something
inside it on Christmas Day, the next morning.

Have a look.

Love,

Snow!

Hi Sibyl,

We had snow yesterday at our house. Grandpa Charlie and I watched it come down all
over the yard. Then we built a fire in the fireplace.

Take a look at the snow coming down, and the icy snow on the deck this morning.

When you come in December, we will build another fire in our fireplace for you.

Love,

Digraphs

Hi Sibyl,

I have made another book for you. It is about digraphs. Digraphs
are two letters that together make one sound. Have a look.

We will be so happy to see you for Christmas.
