post-Easter update

Here are some photos from the last several weeks, and a brief, funny conversation between Sam and Susan.

First photo: Susan and Sam in their Easter best, in our back porch.

Second: Grandad, Nana and Aunt Amy visited the week after Easter, and Amy was kind enough to bunk in the family room, pictured here.


















Here is Sam at a Montessori assembly. They were singing "Singing in the Rain", a song he still sings to himself from time to time.



















Last weekend was unseasonably warm and sunny, so we took a trip to a local park (Mendon) with Ed Hull and his son Gabriel. Here's Sam on the swings:




















And here's Gabriel with his disciple, Sam. Gabriel is about to launch a hydraulic rocket, and Sam is protecting his hearing.

Finally, on Monday Lexie came over for a play date. Again, it being unusually warm, Sam and Lexie played with his water table for the first time in the new house.

And the promised conversation:

In the car on the way home from Montessori a couple of days ago, Sam was singing something about "the woman brings me snacks..."

Susan: "Who's the woman?"
Sam: "You are."
Susan, smiling: "I'm your MOTHER."
Sam: "You're my woman."
(Then Susan thinks he repeated it, simply because She was giving it attention.)
Susan: "I don't think I like that!"--but Sam could tell Susan thought it was funny.

Makes you wonder who's running the Montessori program...

I am so happy to see your post...I was starting to wonder if I had somehow deleted the rss-feed from your blog..because I missed reading Sam posts.

It's kind of you to say that! I am sorry it's not much of a post. I need to be more diligent with the camera, and more importantly with paper and pencil!

Hey, tell Sam's WOMAN to look for a package in the mail next week. I just need to find a box!
