I like the disposable camera idea--I know that the thrill of being the one to pick what to take a picture of what a neat thing. As far as the "disappointment over only 1 present" problem goes, you have 2 paths: 1) let them adjust; 2) give them 2 presents. Your choice, I think; either is fine. You can make the second present something silly and inexpensive. (I give my kids a box of cereal for Christmas each year--Cocoa Puffs, or Rainbow Rice Krispies, or something else that I might not get them anyway. It's big and colorful and sweet, and it goes away after they eat it, and they get to have fun eating "their present" for several days. If you're a member of a warehouse club, a HUGE box is about $7; at the grocery store, a regular large box runs about $6)

Joyce, You could buy her also some scissor that cut cute designs from Michael or even the "Dollar Tree" if you are lucky to find them there. Also you might want to check out the cable station "DIY (Do it Yourself Network...owned by the folks that have the Home and Garden station) They have a show every week on scrapbooking and tell all kinds of information and projects. I did a search and turned up numerous projects and ideas on scrapbooking at the website. Just use this address when searching the internet Diynet.com When you get to the page look on the left and you will find a search retangular book with a large arrow pointing to it type in the word scrapbooking and click on the arrow. Like I said before you will find numerous project and ideas on scrapbooking. A lot like taking a scrapbooking class. You could copy these articles and include them along with your Christmas present of the Scrapbook and perhaps scissors and whatever else you were going to get pertaining to scrapbooking. I know the pages would be appreciated. ~Lynn~

Hi All, wishing everyone here and all your friends and family a blessed Christmas and much happiness and joy in the New Year, Aegis, keep them growing and keep on learning. That's what keeps us young. Yolanda

As I have chimed in before regarding Morus nigra, I can attest to its hardiness. It has survived my zone 6b fine, even deep freezes well below zero F (to -23 F one winter in fact) and still fruited the next summer. You could certainly grow it in the ground in your climate, but I would still be very cautious with such a small plant of any Morus species that is not properly eased into dormancy. So for this winter, it looks like you're stuck with it in a pot in a protected location, as gardengal48 suggested. I would not bring it inside as that would just further confuse it's going into dormancy process.
