I sort of got discouraged on days 2 and 3, where I didn't find much that was edifying. But day 4 had a couple interesting things.One was a question I have about "Eden has been trampled, torched, and savaged." I have thought Eden was doing okay. I guess maybe if the whole... (More)

Independence, Construction, Playdough

Jonathan borrowed a playdough pliers from the Kuhns and discovered that it makes nice little barrels. Since his dough is now all colors mixed up, it is brown. Lisa thought they looked like Tootsie Rolls. A few days later when he was telling another friend about the things he... (More)

But I happened across Slice of Laodicea and read the following quote today, which is exactly how I have been thinking recently:... (More)

Somehow the appliance spies informed our dryer that we were at Sears looking at a new dryer. Heather wanted to get a new one, since this one doesn't have a low heat setting - but the dryer has worked fine for years. The next time we used our dryer, it refused to start a couple times,... (More)

"CR" Sound, Math Rhymes

Jonathan was rolling out fondant and playing with cookie cutters and talking to himself about them when I heard him say, "cross" correctly! He also said, "green" correctly so I asked him to say "Grammy" and he did! They do sound slightly like... (More)

Bubbles, Ticklish

Noah is very interested in his new teeth - he sticks his tongue in and out over them a lot and then goes "bbbbb" and makes bubbles. He is definitely ticklish now, mostly on his ribs but also under his armpits. He has passed a toy (or Daddy's finger) from one hand to another several... (More)
