Efficient this morning. Out of the house by 7:05 after Chris’s perfect waffles. Drove upriver in the rain listening to a podcast that C later told me was from a year and a half ago, not, oh, yesterday, as I thought it was. I’m going to need a bigger brain. Worked until early afternoon. Isn’t it nice to check things off the list? Museum of Natural History with the girl, who liked the Smilodon, the birds in the background murals, and drawing with colored pencils in the kids’ discovery area. On to rehearsal, where the girl spilled the Cheerios, wanted hugs, and gave everyone cheesy smiles. Then asked to put on her jacket, socks, and shoes, although C wouldn’t be there for another 20 minutes to rescue her. Salmon burgers and C’s fantastic fries for dinner.
Now for what you really want, some photos:
Zoolights at Portland's Oregon Zoo. Diana and I brought the kids on a crisp day after Christmas.
I'm at the beach! Pay attention to me! I'm in your picture!
Sylvan after a pretty huge sledding wipe-out. He's always been happier outside.
Two of the kissiest people I know.
