  1. First off, what is a bell button and exactly how could the boys expose it? (2/24)

    Second, what is the significance of some of the posts being italicized while the others are plain?

    Isn't it funny that I predicted way back then that Peter would be a runner?!!

    Love,
    Mom

  2. Shoot, that's where spell check fails ya. I fixed it.

    I was wondering when someone would notice the italics. I guess this month was heavy on them so they probably stood out. Italics represent when Daddy made the notation whereas plain type is when you wrote, Mommy.

    And yes, I was laughing when I saw what you wrote about Peter! I think it's more amusing that even as a child he had nothing better to do than run around in circles. ;-P

  3. Hey, what's wrong with running around in circles? I'd also like to note, that though Michael may be more advanced than me developmentally, I still beat the tar out of him. I guess he's not such a tough guy after all...
