first words at the circus

For today's videos, we're going one month back in time.

It's Papa reading "First Words at the Circus" to Zoralee - in two parts.

A few notes:

First, a question: do either you or Jason ever read the actual WORDS in the books?

Second, a note: Zoralee is so expressive, and what's weird (weird, aka wicked smart) is that she pipes in as one would if they were speaking. It's just that, she isn't.

Third, another question: when did she start doing that brbrbrbr thing with her lips? Maybe a month ago, I'm guessing.

I love her little squeals. I've not been around many babies that are that loud, which is funny, considering, well, that she's your daughter... ahahahha!

More videos, sis. Keep 'em a coming!; September 18, 2009 at 10:54 AM

When stories are shared, individual experiences become communal experiences. This is hospitality at its most profound.

Of all the warning sounds that animals make, I think the one that's the least effective on me is a kind of clicking noise.

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

I have been in Sorrow's kitchen and licked out all the pots. Then I have stood on the peaky mountain wrapped in rainbows, with a harp and a sword in my hands.

When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
when doubt no longer exists for you,
then go forward with courage.
So long as mists envelop you, be still.
Be still until the sunlight pours through
and dispels the mists --
as it surely will.
Then act with courage.

Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.
