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

Enjoying some September-like weather here. Temps in the 50s, could even get to 60 at some point this week. However, there are ominous warnings that a big snowstorm might blow in on Sunday.

Last night John was playing with a little farm puzzle we have, one of the pieces is a cow, and Rhonda asked John "what do we get from cows?" And John says..."cow poop". Huh? Wha...? Where in the world did he get that ?!? Rhonda was trying to get him to say milk! She wonders if he maybe remembers that from the trip to the farm over Labor Day, but he's never said that before, or made a big deal of it. Ha. Kids.

I'd almost say he is potty trained now! In only a week or two! He'll usually go to the chair all by himself without prompting when he has to go. Might be awhile though before we could trust him without a diaper at night. I suppose soon we could switch his bed to the toddler bed, and keep a chair in his room so he could go himself at night.

Last night for snacks, among other things, I gave Hanna some grapes. She really likes them, and kept asking for more by pointing and saying "baipes!"

The final Game (game 4) of Man vs. Machine is this afternoon. Updates to follow...
