Julia Factoid

Julia: Is a jet the fastest plane?

Claire: Actually, a rocket ship is faster than a jet.

Julia: So, a rocket ship is the fastest thing in the world.

Rich: Well, the fastest thing in the world is light.

Claire: Papa’s right. When you turn on a flashlight, the light moves faster than anything.

Julia: So, a rocket ship is the fastest moving thing…AND the fastest NON MOVING thing is a flashlight.

Unicorn Diet

Julia has been drawing horses lately. I asked her what these two were doing and she answered, “This is a picture of two unicorns fighting over a carrot and a sugar cube.” The one on the right is one ferocious unicorn.

Rise and Shine

Con with Smacker

I was careful to turn off all alarms the night before, but around 7:00 or so, Conrad and Julia climbed into bed with us. Not a problem…except for Julia’s aversion to bed covers and Conrad’s rapid-fire pacifier sucking. Finally, when I was close to giving up and climbing into Julia’s bed, I thought we should talk about it:

Rich: Julia, is this Conrad’s bed?

Julia: No, he’s too small.

Rich: Is this your bed?

Julia: No, I’m too medium size.
