It's Snowtime!, Dr. H., Kids Say the DarndestThings

1. The weather model my neighbor emails me is the prettiest thing. It radiates such cheery, springtime color when in fact it's predicting our pure, white snowfall for tomorrow.
2. Back to the dentist who is awfully nice.
3. Daughter #1 keeps an online journal of her daughter's antics and conversations. Almost daily, I have a peek into her two-year-old world, which is usually pretty funny. This is a wonderful thing for grandparents like us, who live too far away for weekly visits.

I hope that 16" prediction does not come true!

"The world is fairly studded and strewn with pennies cast broadside from a generous hand. But who gets excited by a mere penny?...It is dire poverty indeed when a man is so malnourished and fatigued that he won't stoop to pick up a penny. But if you cultivate a healthy poverty and simplicity, so that finding a penny will literally make your day, then, since the world is in fact planted with pennies, you have with your poverty bought a lifetime of days. It is that simple. what you see is what you get."
