Topics of conversation

Soooooo....

Jonas continues to be a fantastic big brother. Entertaining, protective, nurturing. He's enjoying the role so much that he's been imploring Sam to have another baby. "How about a sister?" asked Sam's grandmother. "No, I want another brother" says Jonas. Much as his pleas are endearing, I don't think they're going to be realized.

Julian is reaching a new level of conversational sophistication. Saturday we were all supposed to go to Amelia's birthday party, but Julian had woken up with a cough that could earn him protection under the Federal Marine Mammal Protection Act. He and I stayed behind, in spite of the fact that he seemed to feel fine. When you show up at a kids' birthday party with a snot-nosed toddler making that noise, you're likely to get your tires slashed by the parent of a kid who just got over the last nasty cold.

Sam and Jonas had been gone for an hour or so when I grew suspicious. "Julian, did you poop?".

"No. Jonas fawt."
