Here you go

These are here because Glubble allows one to click on links within YouTube and go onto undesired pages. Sorry, Little Man, but this is the compromise.

Oh, the baby steps it took to get here. He even wanted to take her for a walk - can you imagine?

And here, again, baby steps. I can't wait to get home every night to try something new.

sick

Little man's immune system is getting walloped this week. I am the first line of defense as dad is on vacation - nice timing, eh? So posts are few and far between at the moment.

cockles of my heart

There is something about the sight of anyone holding a book and walking from some activity to another, rapt in the plot or the narrative of what's printed on those pages so much so that they can't tear themselves from its orbit and rejoin what's going no around them, that makes me smile. But something about seeing a young person, under the age of 20, say, doing this really warms the cockles of my heart. That was Little Man yesterday, walking from the library to the car. What made it even sweeter was that he requested the excursion and understood the gravity of the mission since the place was due to close in half an hour. They had the requisite title, however, and all was well in reader land. Ahhhhhhhh.

The beginnings of salmon en pappilote.

It's "Fork in the Road!"

Little man is here for a stretch, and we are scouring the known universe for stuff to do in the afternoons. This is what we found yesterday:

Little man walks into the room and in front of the projector lens, and viola! the magic of science. 

Way cool.

And then there is the obligatory lesson on the food pyramid:

Ew.
