We're Back

Thanks for coming on over. We appreciate your patience with our move.

To reward you, I will relate a story that just unfolded about 5 min. ago across the hall. Lauren and I were here in the guest room. I was working on this blog thing and she was setting up to do some grading. We heard Colin crying in the stairwell. "Where are you?" he cried. Lauren found him on the stairs and picked him up.

"What's wrong sweety?" she asked.
"We drew on ourselves and it will never come off our whole lives!" he said, sobbing.
"Let me see," I said.
"You have to come into the bedroom, and turn out the lights." he said. I followed Lauren, carrying him, into their bedroom where Trevor was hiding under his covers (not usual for Vietnam, where you really don't need covers).
"Trevor, what happened?" I asked
He looked a mixture of excited and worried and took out a spy pen Colin had gotten from a goody bag. He shined the little blue light on his hand, revealing a smiley face. I laughed. "Colin. Don't worry. Watch this." I did the dad thing and spit on my finger and rubbed the back of Trevor's hand vigorously. Didn't work. Face was still there.
"We tried but it won't come off." Trevor said. Then Colin stood up and shined the little light on his chest revealing a large smiley face with lines all around it. He moved it lower to illuminate his now glowing belly button, to which we all laughed, including him.
Then Trevor took the light back to reveal two fluorescent nipples.

They get this from their mother.

That's all for now. It is nice to be back up and running. Unfortunately, there are also rumors that the government wants to bock blogspot blogs as well. We'll just have to wait and see what happens. Thanks again for checking in. We'll post more soon.
