Here's a quick update:
Sam is in a cast. I was gone (out with my visiting teacher) when it happened. He jumped off Lizzy's bed and dislocated his elbow. I took him to the ER and now he has what he calls a
ROBOT ARM.

Liz ran in a race yesterday. Here's a few photo's: (she did her own hair, don't you love the '80's sweatband?)


Also, I took off the quote part on my blog but here's a few good ones:
A few days ago Liz was in trouble and ran to her room. I opened her door and she said, "I'm unavailable right now!"
A few nights later at bedtime Phil tucked her in and was leaving the room when she said, "But daddy, I'm feeling forlorn and scared."
We were at a baptism a few weeks ago and when the baptized girl left to change her clothes Sam asked, "Where'd Violet go?" I said, "To get changed." He thought about it and a bit confused he asked, "To change her diaper?"
That's it for updates right now.
