In Jens absence we have spent a good amount of time in the company of books. We went to the bookstore Friday night, the Library Saturday evening and on Sunday afternoon we made a sojourn to the comic store. Michael was reading a Disney "Scrooge Duck" (Donald's Rich Uncle) comic book this weekend, so I thought I would take him and let him pick out another. Instead of another Disney tale, he chose something called "Owly;" it is very innocent, and is in black and white.
Alex picked "Monkey Versus Robot." Even thought it was more action than Michael's, it was a good selection for him. It was made for young readers and had very few words, but it made him feel like he was reading "a long book."

Here are the postcards that were sent to Michael and Alex's grandparents and greatgrandparents via Cardstore.com. I think of them as a mixture of public relations and propaganda. Read enough of their lives, and you can consider yourself a virtual grandparent/aunt/uncle. There are worse things.
