Things Benji Says

A few days ago, he brought home a leaf from outside.  Yesterday evening, he told me, "This is a Love Leaf.  It's for our whole family."  Awww...

P.S.  Of course, now I can't get rid of it.  What does one do with a discarded Love Leaf?

Benji the Chef

The pants-free chef, that is.  Learning how to cook from Daddy.  Don't worry, it wasn't a meal that could splatter.  --Victoria

Things Benji Says

"Daddy, what happened to the government shutdown?"  Who knew he's been following current events?

Reading Blanket

Benji loves the new blanket made by Victoria's mother, Pauline.  He insists on cuddling under it every time we are reading in the evening.  Of course, it was supposed to be a "blankie" for me . . .  --Victoria

Ten Lego Puppies

Technically they are made of Duplo (the big Legos), not Lego.  In the second photo, he is looking sad and/or grumpy because I insisted that he take his thumb out of his mouth for the photo.  Such a tragedy!  --Victoria
