Way to go, AJ!

Ethan's Presentation

The London City School Board heard a program from the first grade classes last night. A boy and girl from each class had their parts. As they were waiting in line (Ethan was #3), the girl from his class was getting worried. "Don't worry " say Ethan with`all the wisdom and tact a 6 year old boy can muster, "You will do fine, you have the short part!" And she did. As did Master Ethan, who is starting to remind me of Matt.

London Is Still Rural...

But the driver was eating breakfast at McDonalds.

Trampoline Wins This Round

Granddaughter Ailsa lost the last round to the trampoline. She has a small radial distal fracture of her wrist. It is small enough that you can only see it from one angle, but the decision goes to the trampoline. There will be no football or skateboarding for AJ for a while, as they rank at the top of the bone-breaking chart for children. Aj is following in my footsteps... I broke my left arm 3 times before getting to high school. None of the top 3 were winners in my case. Riding a horse bare-back, school yard fight and ice skating were my downfall.

Sweet Baby Landyn
