- Jack decorated my keyboard by taping smiling paper Halloween spiders, purple and black, in a row across the top of it. He wrote "HAPPY HALLOWEEN" on a piece of Scotch tape and stuck across the desk.
- Kate this morning was singing to her stuffed Backyardigans toys. She lines them up in her bed, heads on her pillow, and sings to them individually. "Uniqua, Uniqua....Pablo, Pablo..." She does it in a sweet, soft, high, sing-songy voice.
- Jack drew a picture of a Haunted House, with all kinds of ghosts, bats, cats, skeletons, etc. There were a lot of bats and goblins. Some came from the Ed Emberly book, some from his mind. He made a card that said "Happy Halloween," "Merry Christmas" and other holiday salutations. Oh yes, Robin, his birthday cards for the twins also say "Happy Halloween." I'll mail them soonish.
- I got Kate up this morning. Kate, do you want breakfast now, or do you want to watch football highlights? "Foohball highlighs!" So we did.
- I took Jack to the doctor yesterday; turns out he had strep throat. While we sat in the doctor's office, he grabbed some crayons and drew pictures on the paper roll on the examination table, and then on her clipboard when she came in. Cats, dogs, and bats. Halloween pictures.
- When I put Kate to bed, she likes "Swing on a Star" the best. She likes to start singing it, then asks me too when she can't remember any more words. "Would you like to swing on a stahr....cahry moombeans home in ...jahr.....and be better off than you are....or would you rather be fish. Fish is a aminal" (that's how she says it, it's awesome) "that lives on a farm. ...likes to read book...has lots of charm...Your turn, Daddy!"
