Declan said today: "Mom! I need help with my jacket, I can't zip it down!"

We zip up our jackets, and then unzip them.  Why not zip it up and zip it down?

When he reads a story he tells me that there is an "ending, and a begending".  Makes sense - begENDing must be the opposite of ENDing!

And also, my clever son knows who is featured on the penny.  Hammerhead Lincoln.

Here he is last Easter.  I know it is a poor quality picture- but it was hard to capture him in action as he colored his eggs.  His unique stye- throw them up into the air, and see if they land in a bowl of dye.
