I am SO going to miss this

My son (who just turned eight) and I have been playing a car spotting game, calling out car makes, usually by spotting the logo on the back of the car.

The other day, he shouted out, "Inny! I mean – Outy!"

I was confused. "I thought we were playing the car game," I said.

"Yeah," he answered, "The logo with the four circles. That's Outy, isn't it?"

Folks outside of the US: Keep in mind us Americans would pronounce it 'Audi'.

Write it all down, brandy! Start now!! I have an archive of emails I've sent to family. (and I really should print it out...)

Kids always have that uncanny ability to make us smile when its most needed don't they! Thanks for sharing, very cute moment. ( and welcome back too, haven't seen you about for a few. )

Thanks Lisa! Life got kind of complicated for a bit there. Next research project is "Contact Dermatitis" (which to me smacks of the manifold illnesses that were all once dubbed "consumption" -- but who knows...)

PS: We just got the first Avatar: Earth DVD!! :-)

Gotta love the Avatar!!! We're waiting on the new season to start, but the girls and I are still lovin watching the re-runs!! I understand the whole life got complicated thing, believe me (see tribute to my brother...which was just the beginning of turmoil of late. Since him, I've lost a dear friend, just to tip the iceberg. But enough of that, lets stay on the happy stuff. I'm glad to see your shiney smile again)

Penina,

I am going through my connections today and just realized I've not heard from you for a long time and miss your excellent writing. Hope all is well.
