Nine Days (& other odds and ends)

Nine days until Maddie Bower arrives. Liquid joy is congealing in all the small spaces of our apartment as one member of teamfordham eagerly awaits her arrival.

Said member of teamfordham lost another tooth this week. This brings the total to 3 gone in the past 2 weeks. Tess lost one as well. Perhaps we should have the water checked.

Micah starts soccer in a few weeks. The little man has energy to burn. I pray that they help him burn it.

Tess is now reading book 2 of Harry Potter. I think she wants to be in Ravenclaw but I'm not sure. How did this happen? Who knew that they were covertly teaching her to read in that school of hers? We should have paid better attention.

Maddie read an entire book aloud today. She insists that she can't read--she merely sounds the words out loud one by one until the book is done.

Uncle George returns from Sienna (Italy) tomorrow night. I can only hope that he's not too giddy about what a great time he and Susan had. Scratch that. I can also hope that he brings back plenty of wine.

No episodes of "Lost" aired this week. How to feed my addiction until next week? The off-season is going to be really, really hard.
