Somebody turns the big number two on Saturday, so here's a Kara double feature:

Last year

This year

Crazy flipper fingers:

It turns out that Amy is quite the pinball wizard. She saw Mom & Dad playing Windows 3D pinball and wanted to try. She scored over a million points on her very first try.

Kara is very polite. She always says "thank you," she's pretty good at "excuse me," she's working on "please," and the other day when Mom sneezed, she said, "Bless you."

Joy left for a business trip to Cambridge, MA this morning.

Brenda is totally jealous. New England in the fall. Sigh.

High-tech bonding

A naked, clean, happy Kara

Oh, yes. Not in D'Ni. They won't understand:

Amy is still enjoying school at home, in spite of Mom's limited patience. She is particularly proud of the flowers we made out of paper muffin cups and the brownies we baked Monday.

Kara got her very own "unnerwear," just like her big sister. It took her a whole two hours before she wet them.

Joy had some crises come up at work on Wednesday, and was at the office until 10:30 pm. Not the latest he's ever been there, but it's been a while.

While she waited for her husband to come home that night, Brenda actually spent some time playing a computer game. Her brother had given her a sort of sequel to the Myst games, and she passed the first level.

Hot, hot, hot:

Kara has learned to say, "I love you." It melts our hearts.

Amy has been so excited to start school at home. Yesterday was our first day. So far, so good. We did some worksheets and a reading lesson, learned about maps, and made popsicles.

Brenda survived a whirlwind trip to Arizona over the weekend. She was there for half a day and got to see a couple of friends before helping her mom drive a truck up to Utah.

Joy survived two days without his wife. The girls gave him a little trouble at night, but he got to do some serious Daddy/daughter bonding on Saturday.
