1st Day of School

All my boys went to school for their respective first days yesterday. There were very few tears--even from Philip, who has rejoined the ranks of junior high. Interestingly enough, they were all dressed in royal blue. A handsome bunch, I'd say.
Classic papa-son pose.
Below is the path we walk to school. It begins almost directly across from our house!

One Year Old!

It's official: Seba turned one today. We celebrated with some friends in our new place. Yay! Many loud shouts in all directions. Except for Seba, from whom there was no shouting. No crying either, apart from when he bonked his head on the wall. Other than that, totally cool with many people and lots of attention.

You can see it in their eyes: 7 year olds are a special breed. Just enough sense to recognize and create a whole lot of nonsense. But, you know, this yard of peril is the perfect match for them. See below.Happy New Home!
