I told many people that I thought Uncle Chris would have wanted the kids to be able to have Halloween at home. Or that I thought it was important for the sake of the kids to be home for Halloween. What I didn’t figure out until I made this entry was that while the above […]
Missed these things, will put them in the right place shortly… Hope these dates are right… Dialogue, October 22nd Nina, while watching the spaceship land at the end of WALL•E: “Oh, NO!” Mommy: “They’re going home, Sweetie!” Nina, abruptly changes her mind and claps her hands: “Yaaaaaay!” Dialogue, October 22nd Nina, with clearest pronunciation yet, […]
October 24th, the day started like any other, except that when I gave the kids a bowl of cheerios, they situated themselves at a table in the sun room, divvied up the cereal without being asked to, and had a quiet breakfast. Within an hour or so, their Uncle Chris, my brother, was taken from […]

October 8th… we took the kids downtown for the Fall Harvest Whatever The Heck Rockford Calls It Thingy, 2011.

On October 1st, I don’t remember exactly why, but Nina gave me a big strong hug, and laid her head down on my shoulder. I don’t know why I have this noted as “first big hug” but I wanted to mention it anyway. She and I have grown so close, I guess I’ve lost track […]
I have a number of videos, but no time to process them… so we’re going to stick to photos for now and come back for some videos like we did last time. Dialogue, September 26th-27th Brendan, leaning through our front door: “Can Ian come out and play?” Ian, holding up the iPad: “I will but […]
