Ava says “A-ha!”

Ava didn’t remember Easter at age two. So, it was fun watching her get really excited about the egg hunt. Each time she found an egg she could yell, “A-ha!”

Guess which photo is my favorite.

The Lone Guinea

James — Tue, 28 Mar 2006 14:06:10 +0000

On the way to school yesterday, Mason and I saw a guinea walking around in the yard across the street from Ava’s daycare provider. It was in the company of a couple of ducks. Actually, I think the guinea was kinda being the third wheel. One of the ducks would waddle over and try to chase the guinea off. Imagine being chased off by someone who walks like that. It would be humiliating.

Mason kept saying, “Guineas are rare in this world.” I’m never quite sure how to respond to these statements because his notion of “this world” seems to be a mutable idea.

So, I decided to tell him about how we had guineas on our farm when I was young. They were odd ducks. They ate a lot of bugs—in fact, they are praised for their ability to control deer ticks. My mother, Grandma Keim, liked them because they also seemed to control snakes. Their eggs are very hard to break. And, they are loud. Having guineas around is a bit annoying but nobody ever entered our yard without us knowing about it. More than one visitor to our farm was unnerved by these helmeted screaming fowl.

New Ava Pictures

After several months, I am finally getting around to updating some of the pictures on the web site. There are several new photos of Ava in addition to the photos of the snow fort.

The software on the web site has been updated and now I can upload photos directly from the iPhoto program I use for organizing photos on my iBook. The short of it is that I should be able to update the photos on the web site more frequently.

I’m confused about stripes on shirts.

I’m confused about stripes on shirts. I can’t tell the front from the back. Stripes should just be on the front.
