It’s always some kind of party when we get a box from Maddog and Gran. Today it was a jammie party, as we received a boxful of new jammies for everyone.

As you can see from the photos, my new camera isn’t quite the miracle I was hoping for. Don’t get me wrong — it’s AWESOME. The photographs are sharp and beautiful and can take pictures faster than you can blink. However, there isn’t a “control the kids for a decent picture” button. Maybe Nikon will consider adding one to their next model. Or, maybe they could just add a stun gun attachment.

Back on the subject of jammies… As I write this, Dan is reading to the jammie-clad Jack and Maria before they turn in for the night. (All is fair here - The Little Boys already had their book.) He let them each pick a book. Maria chose “Cinderella”. Jack chose this book, given to us so generously by our good friend Kristina, mother of two boys. Does misery love company? Absolutely.

Already Jack has brought a note home this week for head-butting* another child in class. Just wait until TBTITWW sees Jack’s reading log for tonight. I’m sending in a brown paper bag because she’s going to hyperventilate. Dan’s definitely taking the call on that one.

*I’m sure it was a friendly head-butt…
