I've been trying to write insightful, thoughtful posts about the nature of parenting and noticing your own character flaws in your children and trying to save them from themselves. It never comes out the way I want it to, so I'll post some cute kid stories instead (which, frankly, is one of the main purposes of this blog as well as the main interest of many of its family readers).
Amanda comes home with pictures from preschool fairly regularly. Yesterday marks the first time she told me what they were pictures of. The first was a moose. The second was a train. She informed me that "The train does not have a cape." Hmmm.
I watched Luke and a 4 month old baby in the nursery at church the other day. What a difference! The 4 month old sat in the baby swing and batted at the toys hanging over it. One of the toys was a handle that caused music to play and lights to flash when you pulled it. The little baby liked the lights, but wasn't quite coordinated enough to grab the handle and pull (and perhaps didn't have the necessary cause and effect ideas). Luke would crawl over to the handle repeatedly and pull the handle, to the delight of both babies.
