I've been reading James Herriot with the kids lately, which is a little over their heads, but we all love it. Last night's story included this passage, "...[I] then gave her an antitetanus injection to eliminate any risk of later infection," and asked the kids what that meant. Kathryn confidently explained, "It means he gave the horse a shot so the sore wouldn't get infected." I asked her how she knew that. She cocked her head to the side, rolled her eyes, and in a "duh" tone, said, "Context!" That is so Kathryn!

ANNOUNCING...
...the commitment of Nick and Miriam to the P90X way of life. In consideration for our gentle readers, we'll spare you the "before" pics, and just reveal that the above appetizing picture is all too true. We're actually enjoying our mornings together, sweating with Tony (the host) and wondering if we can, in fact, look anything like these folks on the videos. See you around Thanksgiving, hopefully new and improved!
