pippi...she still has the appeal

we're reading pippi longstocking right now and claire and david laugh out loud when we read it.

jon remembers watching the tv show. i remember reading it and seeing film versions.

claire tried to sleep like pippi does last night (with her feet on her pillow and her head under the covers). david loves hearing about the monkey. jacob said "pippi egg on head" when we ate eggs on sunday morning.

and, our neighbor caroline whose father is swedish, just brought over some swedish cookies that pippi made in the book (serendipitously she made them for a school assignment).

yup. pippi, like all the others, has joined our family
