We had a conference for Casey at school yesterday. He's a genius. Ok, his teacher didn't call him a GENIUS, but he can cut on lines, trace, sit still, follow directions, count to 12, recognize shapes & colors. And he can do all sorts of other things I can't recall right now.

Claire got another tooth on Saturday.

It snowed this afternoon, so it took us (me & the kids) an hour & 1/2 to get home. Both were remarkably happy trapped in the car going 5 MPH or less for the last few miles on the parkway. We all bundled up and went for a walk outside, where Casey informed me it looked like sparkly things were falling from the sky & were all over the ground. After he made some snow angels, he came inside & had hot chocolate to get warm (except he wouldn't drink it until it was cold).
