He does not want to, but Kalib must go

Kalib did not want to leave. He shed tears. "No!" he protested. As one grows, he must learn that not only does one not always get to do what he wants, but sometimes he must do things he does not want to do. Like go to school. So, leaving his little brothers behind, Kalib followed his dad to the car as the family dog followed him.

Scary drive home: we watch for falling moose and bears

"It's raining cats and dogs!" So exclaimed Jobe, after we walked through the morning rain from Abby's to the Ford Escape and I strapped him into his car seat. Kalib had to do him one better. "How about it's raining moose and bears?"

It was a scary drive home - not only did we have to worry about the ice with a film of water on it that covered the road, but we had to watch real close for any moose and bears that might be falling from the clouds.

If one had struck us, it surely would have smashed the car.

Abby's is packed – boys go to playroom

Abby's is jampacked today. All seats taken. We gave the boys some lessons in table manners - "Please pass the ketchup!" Then we turned them loose to go to the play area that Abby built just for such people as these.
