I'm assuming you've read "My Family and Other Animals" by Gerald Durrell? If not, GET IT! Hilarious, and right up your alley in terms of boys and nature and sailing and fun. Plus I don't think you could top his sailboat's name-- The Bootle Bumtrinket!

You've got me so curious about the sidebars! Please enter me in the contest! :) And wow...gorgeous photos of the snow. I love the one of N and her cheeks and lashes. Lovely!

Ohmygoodness. You are AWESOME. Z is, too, but thank you for sharing how you helped him walk down that path.

(And thanks for supporting those that like to spoil the tar out of kids at Christmas....we're another family that saves it all up for once a year, and it's pretty magical. Adding in Zach's sense of awareness would be the icing on the cake.)

This is such a delight of a post. I feel the exact same way about dd, but you've captured it in words and photos better than I thought possible. Thank you!

I was hesitant to allow swords in the house, but after seeing my son play so happily (and imaginatively...is that a word?) at the local Ren Faire, I think he'd do great with one at home. Please enter me, and thanks!

So cute...we have the same dress for our V (though we lucked into ours at a rummage sale before she was born). We took a picture of her in the same dress the week after she was born, when she turned six months, and on her first birthday: http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz149/magpiepi... Thank you for posting the link to the store where they're sold...it's my very favorite dress on her, and I'm so glad to know I can get it in bigger sizes!

Best of luck with all your work!

Adorable. I think she and V could be sisters. Different coloring, but so many pictures you post of your daughter are familiar looks to me! V's turning one at the end of the week...crazy that it's gone by this quickly.

Blessings to you and yours,

Have you seen or read Pete Seeger's Storytelling Book? It came out a few years ago and helps guide parents toward exactly what you're talking about. Pete Seeger is a master storyteller, obviously, but he shares some hints and is incredibly encouraging in this book...also sharing some of the stories he heard as a child. Good read. :)
