Ta-Da! And Josiah-isms
Remember that secret project I told you Andrea was working on for me? Well, what do you think of the new look? Be sure to scroll down to the very bottom of the page for the cool image in the footer. There are a couple of wonky things in the sidebar, but they’ll be figured out soon. Thanks, Andrea! It’s perfect - just what I imagined.
Josiah: Noah, I read two of the Frog and Toad books, and I’m not even allowed!
Noah: What do you mean?
Josiah: It says right on the book: “Grades 1 through 3.” I’m only in kindergarten!
Later, he came downstairs and announced to Kevin and I that he couldn’t play Stratego anymore, that it was against the rules. I said, “What rules?” His response? “The box says ages 8 and up!” 
He also created some sort of booby-trap in the bathroom, involving piles of books covered with unrolled toilet paper. Then he came and confessed it to me, prefacing it with, “Mommy, don’t be mad, but…” Can you guess what TV show we’ve been watching on DVD? Yep, Macgyver!
ohhhh, I’m jealous.
Andrea, Can I have one? Heh, heh!

It is you. The candle, the chocolate, the wine, the book. Excellent work, Andrea!
What a happy transformation. I’m working on cleaning my bookshelves today. One chore which I adore.

February 23rd, 2008 at 9:49 pmOh, i so like Josiah already!! So very literal–and pretty good, being able to read the Frog and Toad books (which i love) in Kindergarten. Cool!
Love Macgyver too–have you seen “Mythbusters” on tv? They just did a Macgyver special, where they tried some of his inventions. Pretty fun.
February 24th, 2008 at 10:21 amThanks so much for the wonderful comments, everyone!
Julia - my Dad recorded the Magyver Mythbusters for us, because we don’t get Discovery Channel. We’re really looking forward to watching it!
