Good luck, Frances! BTW, I met a family last weekend who had a brown-haired girl and a blond-haired boy the same ages as your two -- but they were not quite as cute.
Wow, Leif! I guess going to school is working out for him!
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

School has worked out pretty well overall. He is aware he is smaller and younger than the other kids, which is hard, but, OTOH, the work is too easy for him and he has expressed some boredom. It's been a difficult balance.

She even says "duh!" and "you drive me crazy."
Emeline says "Chill out, dad" complete with dismissive hand wave.

I get "What.Evvver" from my daughter. A couple of nights ago I pissed off Leif and he started yelling "Shame on you Dad! Shame!"
