Woodjie's Birthday

Woodjie turned four recently and got to eat Burger King for dinner. We spent over $70 on the food! He's been running about and being busy all day. He's helped his father make puppies happy on the computer. He opened up a "you ee full" package with Lightning McQueen and his buddies. Little Rose was a bit jealous of the attention and present- OPENING, but never had a fit about the presents themselves and the fact that she never got any. I guess they have learned that they must share everything, and they did. Quite nicely. Most of the time. Woodjie has had several new things to say just out of the blue such as "Careful!" and "See you later!" and "Wook. A diya- saur." I don't remember his learning what a dinosaur was or how to tell people to be careful. He'd been exposed to it about a zillion times and now finally - out of nowhere - strange words are starting to pop out of his little mouth. He doesn't get when we are finished with something fun. The answer to that is, "No. You don't do that!" and you'll get an angry pointing at.

Bringing Garbage Home

Some people up the street were throwing this table away. It was in pretty bad shape and one of the legs was off. I've glued the leg back...
