Minifob finally made the transition from a crib into a big-boy bed last night. He got a little waffly right as we were giving hugs and kisses, but I got him his set of plastic tools to hang onto, and he was good.

This morning when he woke up, he was so pleased. He excitedly pointed at his quilt and cried, "Look! This is blue!"

Congrats to the darlet, and condolences to the dars who receive the bills.

My son Lee is outside right now changing the valve cover gasket on my engine.

He's a mensch.

I just learned that my 5th grade girl was the runner up in the school geography bee. Awesome. Especially considering there was no studying for it.
