Bede missed Mass twice in the last few weeks because he overslept. The second time it happened he was very upset and talked about it for days. Today he woke up and came thundering down the stairs, still in pajamas. "Mom! What time is it? Where is Gil and Dad?" I reassured him that nobody left, he was fine, and he wouldn't be forgotten. He immediately started getting ready – here he is, putting on his shoes. He also has a cute and devoted relationship with Mary. It's taken years, but I'd say the boy's a Catholic.

Clementine was insistent that we pose thusly.

The blue eyes and maybe something about the nose and cheekbones still there? I have a lot more fat in my face, and I'm about 40 years younger – but still.

The kids are studying US History this year, so I'm digging through my family tree. This is my great great grandfather, Richard Job Taylor. He was born in 1831, in Georgia. I don't know a lot about him. He went by Job, sometimes spelled Jobe. He fought in the Civil War, for Mississippi, had eight kids with one wife, Nancy Jane, and died in 1922. He also looks just like my father. #familytree

Knitted for Dorothy, nursed this little guy, troubleshot Sean's netbook, installed a DOS emulator and some sweet ROMs for Abby, made headway on the seasonal clothes shift, cared for the other kids in various ways, and am about to cook dinner.

Fifteen minute bulky toy dog sweater for Dorothy's toy Chihuahua, made up as I went. 1×1 rib neck and hem, short row chest. Turned out well for a first effort! Two worsted held together, in orange and red (her choice.) #knitting #knittedtoys

Perry just cracks up with Gilbert. None of us can get those belly laughs but him.

Made it to Mass but then didn't want to wake this guy. So I'm sitting here, Sean is in with the lot. Am I the man in the van or the tin dog?

Boring but functional. Gilbert is feeling the holes of his piecemeal arithmetic knowledge. We'll fill those right in. #unschooling
