Benjamin explained to me the difference between tee ball and baseball. He said, "In tee ball you just hit the ball. In regular baseball, somebody throws a ball at you and you have to hit it. Then in tee ball the coach tells you where to run. And he tells you to run and stop. In real baseball, you just don't have a coach telling you where to run and you just have to run and run."
In other news, Jeremy is finishing a poetry unit at school. He woke up in the night last night and wrote down this poem:
Nature
As I listen to a rippling brook
And feel the breeze of spring
I spot a purple poppy, as humble as can be
I spot a purple poppy, as humble as can be
As I listen to a rippling brook
And feel the breeze of spring
I spot a purple poppy, as humble as can be
I spot a purple poppy, as humble as can be

What talented children! Good job Alex! How mature of Benjamin to be so aware of the difference between tee ball and baseball! That Nature poem was beautiful, Jeremy! Impressive that it's on his mind enough have insight come in the middle of the night. Thanks for the update. -Ilene
Your kids are getting so big. How fun to have baseball going on and ski trips. It looks like you guys have a great time together. We have always looked up to your family:) I can't believe you only have a few more weeks until your baby is here. We can't wait to here about her.
Beautiful poem, Jeremy! Well done!!!
