This comment from Cooper during church Sunday...

"I always have the hardest time remembering the difference between a Cockatrice and a Manticore..."

I think Cooper was hearing a different sermon than I was.

This is what happens...

...when you take little boys shopping for bicycle helmets.

Lillian's Really Odd Cheetah Report

Lillian had to write an endangered species report for her GT class and had to supplement that report with a visual of some sort. She decided she wanted to make her visual aid a filmed "Cheetah Safari." She also insisted the characters in this movie be stark white, undecorated folded paper faces... go figure.

She had to make this during the same evening Cooper was tied up at baseball, so I had the honor of being her surreal paper-faced costar.

"Cooper is sweet.  While I was talking with you he got Max some bandaids and put them on his hands where he fell.  He even got him some character ones. Now they are putting a dead lizard in a jar :)"

Text from Robin #6

"I have got to look up how to build a worm farm. Max is ELATED that I found a bunch while digging up weeds near the dog lot and in the depths of despair that they are crawling away"
