Hats Off!

Hats Off!

Along the street there comes
a blare of bugles, a ruffle of drums
a flash of colors beneath the sky
Hats Off! The Flag is Passing by!

Levi on the 4th of July, 2006.
4th of July 2006 my little Levi turned 2. We really had a firecracker day. We went to a parade, had a birthday party, started a tradition of a water balloon fight, watched fireworks and set off fireworks.

No Longer a Lefty

I've been waiting to see if Levi was going to end up a lefty or a righty. He keeps changing hands on me. It looked like for awhile he was a lefty. But today I was watching him draw and I think he's going to join the right hander's world. He only uses his left hand if his right hand is really tired. Being a right hander is good because he'll avoid uncomfortable desk chairs and scissors. Ofcourse, unlike me, he'll never be in his "right mind".
