Cirrus Week 9 (Apr 14-20)

What a week.  Our hearts go out to the lives lost at the Boston Marathon and all affected by the tragedy.  We are thankful that all our friends and teammates from the Somerville Road Runners who were running, cheering and volunteering are safe.  And we feel blessed to have three exuberant little children to remind us of all the wonder and beauty in our world, in spite of such events.

Here are a few questions from Cadel that made us smile (and tested our ability to answer!):

While playing one evening, Cadel, the future physicist, asks:  "Why does a tank of helium not float away?"

While planting seeds in our garden, Cadel, the future philosopher asks:  "How was the first seed made?"

And while Stacey is nursing Cirrus, Cadel, being his 4 year old self, asks:  "Where does the milk come from? ....   Maybe from a cow inside."

Cirrus views the world from a different perspective -- just starting to hold his head up when laying on his belly.

 Cirrus is unsure of these strange appendages that seem mostly uncontrollable.

 Nap time!
