eli is starting to be very playful. i planted him in the middle of our big red couch, and he sat there pretty happily for a long time. lucy joined him, of course, reading her books and helping him keep track of the toys on his lap. it is easy to make eli laugh and smile.

as i left a friend's house on thursday morning, i noticed how the fog was just sitting on the nearby mountains, making a compelling backdrop to the rooftops of the neighborhood. i thought immediately of a great carl sandburg poem (or was it langston hughes?) about fog & "little cat's feet".

and for laughs: this happened about 7 times this week. i put it in black & white to help you keep down your breakfast. :) oh, eli. we'll never have clothes for hand-me-downs at this rate!
what did your week look like?
