Graffiti

I know, it looks like the spine-chilling signature of a serial killer. The thing the cops uncover written with blood on the inside of a cabinet door while the crime scene unit is searching the mangled, unrecognizable body for any evidence. Someone opens the cabinet and there it is! Then the lead detective says "Just like at the last two. We've got a psycho on our hands" and exchanges a knowing glance with his smoking hot chick partner and the opening credits roll. It looks like that, but it's really an unprompted example of Kate's new sentence writing prowess! We had no idea she was capable of this yet, so finding this scrawled on the playroom wall was thrilling. As I'd hoped, Sarah wants in on that action and has voluntarily begun writing letters. I wish she wouldn't write them on the furniture, but still, she does a solid S, a good C and yesterday managed to eek out a flawless A.

I took this blurry, bad photo with my phone because we still don't have our camera lenses, thus rendering our camera unusable (ahem, if you promised to ship them to us 3 weeks ago and still haven't, you know who you are...there will be a distinct lack of photos of the kids doing adorable things until we can use our camera again. Just sayin'.)

That's a pretty big fucking milestone right there

Jeremiah, you could use some work on your punctuation:

That's a pretty, big, fucking milestone, right there.

His colon seems fine, but you should avoid him while he's on his period.

That is an astoundingly good subject matter. It's a shame you don't have a better camera to capture such an important moment. Where are these lenses? Did you forget them at my house? If so, just let me know and I'll drop everything I'm doing, no matter how important, and ship them back to you. It's really no big deal on my end. I could just take them to the any UPS store and send them.

I know why you don't have your lenses!!! ;)

OK, I looked all over our house. No lenses. I also asked the neighbors next door, because I figured someone may have put them down over there. Nothing. I called mom and asked her if they were left at their house. We talked about it for an hour and a half. She tore the place apart looking, but couldn't find them. Now she's really getting upset, because she knows that without those lenses, we're all going to miss out on some amazing pictures of two of the most adorable children ever. If they don't turn up soon, I'm going to assume they were stolen and call the police.
Wherever they are, I hope they make their way back to you soon. We all really miss the pics you take with them.

The lenses are currently being used to display mom's prized dust collection.

NOBODY'S dust is worth more than pictures of those two children. Come on, Margie, PLEASE get the lenses back to them so they will stop whining and we can all enjoy new pictures! P-L-E-A-S-E!!
