It is the beast day
in the way - Benjamin Dastrup

What a great poem from Benjamin!  That and a note from Jacob and Ty were waiting for me today when I got home.  What great kids.  Thanks guys!  FYI it's also one of Marilyn's beast days yesterday.  Her wish came true.  Our big tree in the middle of our back yard is no more (well, it's a bunch of slabs of wood and limbs etc. filling up our yard).  She's always hated that tree because it shaded her garden. She hired an assasin to come cut it down.  Yesterday evening I spent hauling the big chunks of wood out by the playhouse to make a pathway through the woods for kids.  Got it about half done....will do the rest tonight.  Then we have to haul away the HUGE pile of limbs and clean up all the sawdust etc.  There is, truly, no rest for the wicked........

Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
