5 dangerous things I hope you'll do

I thought this Tinkering School website and lecture would be good to keep in mind. Dad

Off to the zoo

Cold & cloudy, but the Turtle Back Zoo never disappoints.

Mom & books still rule

After all the tractors, trucks, blocks, movies and superheroes, its endearing to see that reading a book with Mom is still your favorite activity.

Some of Nate's "good ideas"

Often times while listening to a story, Nate chimes in with, "I have a good idea!" Here are some of your ideas:

1. When listening to the story of flap doodle the flip floppin' fish who constantly flopped out of the water onto the ground, Nate suggested attaching springs to his fins.

2. When Mommy said she would not like to retrieve Nate's toy cars from the toilet, Nate suggested we keep a rake in the bathroom to do the job.

3. During the story of the lady bug who lived in Unami Park, Nate suggested we hide under the bridge so we can watch her without scaring her.

Ben's first book

When Ben sees this book, he squeals with delight ! He gazes intensely at each page and uses his hands and feet to touch the fuzzy pictures. The last page is a mirror where Ben smiles and burys his head. He closes the book and re-opens it again and again and again.

First visit to Dad's office



Thanks boys and Mom for such a wonderful visit to my office at MSSM on a cool summer Sunday morning. Having your here is one the most precious moments in my career.
