February came and went in a blink of an eye. It was a cold one!

While we didn't do anything really special we got to see Sophia more than usual. One of her classes in college is a class using food to learn about the history in China. It is called something like Rice, Ramen and LoMien. She has had to make a couple of dishes for homework. She doesn't have access to a kitchen at school so she had to come home twice this month. No complaints here!
We went to a Chinese New Year party at one of her barn family's home. I didn't get any pictures that day.
The barn had their annual Pony Club Banquet. They had 7 seniors recognized this year. Sophia gave a speech for one of the seniors, she also got a beautiful jacket, a blanket and plaque. It is so nice to see all the riders clean up for this event. Sophia had a blast hanging with her friends.
Sophia was invited by TWO teachers to do a faculty/student research project. Both her computer science and math professors invited her. She selected the computer science one because he reached out about two weeks before the math teacher. She will spend 4 weeks this summer at school, room and board included, doing research. This is an incredible opportunity, especially for a freshman!
I did more knitting. I finished a lace wrap that was a huge accomplishment. There were times I didn't think I would ever finish it. Between the rough start trying to understand the pattern to the big knot of yarn in the middle and then the never ending bind off. But it is done.
Our pets are doing wonderfully. I love how they all love each other. Mr. Twinkletoes really loves sitting with me when I knit.


That is all to report this month. Hoping next month is a bit more exciting.
