Good morning music
Helen often wakes up to the alarm playing the soundtrack CD from Sophie’s Choice. It’s nice, gentle, a little wistful.
Anyway, when she wasn’t looking, I cranked up iTunes, copied the CD, and made a new one with the first song the same as always (to give her that sense of familiarity), but the second song was [this annoying little tune][1] from an [old Sherlock Holmes movie][2]. I warn you, if you listen, it will stubbornly lodge itself in your head. Even singing it like Bob Dylan won’t get it out.

Uh oh… those Panthers…
Are not looking great right now. Margaret, are you watching?
The Great Nouning has begun
Child number five, at 22 months, has hit that stage where he can, for extended perods of time, be entertained by pointing to things and saying “What’s this?” Over and over and over. :)
Christmas treat
Here’s #3 on Christmas morning a couple of years ago. It’s a [QuickTime][3] video and you can download a [large file][1] or [small file][2], depending on how fast your internet connection is. “Goodness goodness gracious!”
