Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life

Introduction

My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

Say Please!

Jared and I were in Raley's in Incline Village on Saturday, our last day in the Tahoe area. We were picking up some sandwiches to eat on the way home. Jared had been interested in the number dispenser that had been empty the whole time we had been there and was playing with it. I asked him to stop and he did. He stood there instead and sounded out the first word on the sign above the dispenser:

"Puh - Luh - Eee - Sss"

"Please!"

Entirely on his own, he read the word please -- not a simple word. He has been reading his CVC words for quite a while -- slowly, sounding out each letter and blending them, but reading them nonetheless -- and even some CVCC and CCVC words, but this was impressive even for him.

Potty training and reading. Wow. Hope by now, the strep has left. We exchanged it for conjunctivitis. The only way Rebeca will deal with medicine is to do it herself. We let her now after we've shown her once.

Wow! Give the kid a big pat on the back from me. First pee where it's supposed to be, and now this - well done little man! Glad they had a good time playing in the snow, strep and all.
