Sam was out of town for two days, and I was wondering how the long day-into-bedtime would go.  I was saved by Uncle Matt's T-shirts!  A few weeks ago, Sam went to visit his brother and sister-in-law and their new babies, and Uncle Matt sent these T-shirts (from his high school English class) for the kids.  All three kids were thrilled to put on their new "night shirts" and snuggle into my bed for a little Swallows and Amazons.  (This is a book-- the first of twelve-- about a family with five children who have lots of adventures together, Boxcar Children-style.  It's fun, clean, and a wonderful read aloud.)

Aren't bedtime rituals great? I think reading aloud helps ME settle down sometimes.

N's forehead looks adventurous. Like my M's knees. He's having a bumpy time getting used to his new 1/4 inch of height.

I didn't know how cute little boys were until I became a Mom.
