Jonathan is pretty good at catching a ball or object now. He likes for me to print out coloring book pages for him. But he doesn't want to color them. He likes to cut the object (usually an animal) out. He does a very nice job. He can now reach our lightswitches if he... (More)

Taking His Name

" Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain." Exodus 20:7 (KJV) I've been thinking more recently about what this means. I grew up thinking that it pretty much just meant don't... (More)

The Report: Jonathan "Drives" A Backhoe

Just before 7:00 this morning, I thought I heard some sounds, so looked out the window to see a pickup truck but no backhoe. The backhoe arrived just after 7 and Jonathan watched out the window while I got ready for the day. Daddy said we could go out to look before breakfast since... (More)

Spears, Reading, Boggle

5/7 - "Mommy, we don't see people with spears too much." Cell phones, yes, spears, no. 5/10 - I was doing some reading on the laptop and scrolling with the arrows. First Jonathan noticed that when I pressed the down arrow, the page went up, and vice versa, and... (More)

Car Accident on Penn Avenue

I am up late working on some code, and all of a sudden there is a really loud noise, and I look out my window and watch a car turn kind of sideways and roll over. As far as I can tell there wasn't a second car involved, but I don't know what could have happened to make him flip... (More)

Chef Jonathan

While cooking our breakfast on Saturday, I saw that Heather had put the potatoes on the counter, meaning that we should eat them soon, and not forget about them in their normal storage place. I asked Jonathan how we should cook the potatoes for dinner, and he said that we should make... (More)

Sunny On Sunday

In college, our friend Volus used to say that it was always sunny on Sunday. Even if it was gray in the morning, the sun was out by the time church was over. I found that he was right for the vast majority of the time. This weekend was no exception. Saturday was rainy,... (More)

Car Radio

I finally got around to taking apart our radio in our car that has had a CD stuck in it since we purchased the car. The dashboard came out unexpectedly easily, so I should have done it a long time ago -- I had been intimidated by not seeing any obvious screws, but when I yanked on it,... (More)

Skiing

We finally went skiing for the first time this year and although it was pretty cold, we did have a lot of fun and stayed a lot longer than we did last year. We had a little trouble getting our tickets - it is always hard to find the ski club people, and I was incorrectly asking for Carnegie... (More)

Thoughts on Marriage

A friend of John Kuhns was asked some questions about marriage and what the point of it is. This was his response: I think you are right that marriage is becoming less and less meaningful these days.

I lost my planner just before Christmas (as far as I can deduce, in a shopping cart in the parking lot of Jo-Ann's on McKnight Rd - anybody seen it? Please return it, you can keep the gift cards, I just want the information!) It had several notes in it about cute things the boys... (More)
