I was looking through some Picasa files on our laptop tonight and found this video clip! It looks like Tela & Eliza had some fun with our webcam!

Photo Shoot - Tela & Eliza Style
Tela & Eliza got trunks full of fun dress-up costumes from Grandma & Pop this past Christmas. The following series of photos were taken soon after Christmas when Tela and Eliza decided to dress up in various outfits for their own fashion show and photo shoot. They each took turns dressing up, posing for and taking pictures. You should have seen them telling one another how to stand and pose. Tela photographed Eliza; Eliza photographed Tela. Really -- without parent intervention!

Haiti Relief
True Story -- Unsolicited Haiti Relief Effort from Tela and Eliza!
(granted, the girls know about Haiti ... even before the quake; and since the quake, I know they have observed my own commitment to support relief efforts; however, the following truly was unsolicited!)
Tela walked over to me while I was sitting at the dining room table yesterday.
She says, "Mommy, I keep seeing things on the TV about Haiti."
I say, "I know. It's a very bad situation."
She says, "Haiti needs lots of help."
I say, "Yes, you're right. What do you think we can do to help."
Immediately, Tela says, "I don't know, mommy."
I say, "Well, you take some time to think about it and let me know. I know you will think of something; you always come up with good ideas."
I thought she would take some time to think. But, she didn't.
Tela says, "I know, mommy. I can empty my piggy bank for Haiti."
Tela marched right upstairs to her room to her bank. She began emptying it on to the dining room table. Eliza soon followed suit, saying, " I want to help Haiti, too. I want to help Haiti, too."
They each counted out change from their banks and put it into envelopes. Tela wrote "To.Haiti" I helped Eliza write the same thing.

Tea Party
Following Christmas, the kids attended a tea party at Grandma and Pop's house in Moscow. Hot Cocoa, finger sandwiches, and fun were on the menu for this event.
Tela served the treats.
Pia ate the treats.
Aniela drank the treats.
Eliza had a puss. (only for a minute)
Marty and his girls.
