Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

Well, had a quiet Birth Remembrance Day. Had some good german chocolate cake. The kids enjoyed it too, judging from how much of it got smeared on their hands, faces, and the table. John enjoyed it when Rhonda lit the candles and I blew them out. He also liked singing to me.

Earlier he wanted to watch Veggie Tales, but I said as soon as Star Trek is over, but just when it finished, Rhonda had him come up and take a bath. Well, I forgot about veggie tales, but later, about 9 pm, after we had cake, John said "Veggie Tales!" He remembered. So, I let him watch for a little while.

Lately he's wanted to do Ring around the rosey and Teddy Bear touch the ground (another song with actions) before getting into his crib. Maybe it is another of his bed delaying tactics, but it's short and fun, so why not.

I got Hanna out of her crib this morning. She was awake, but quiet, not fully revved up yet. She likes to be held for a bit when she first gets up. She had her socks off as usual. She just loves to pull off her socks and be barefoot.
