Also, we came down with a cold about two hours after our birthday party. Let’s hope the Bean wasn’t just Typhoid Mary to his assembled friends.

The Bean wanted to read this book, one of his favorites, to you, our Internet friends. (That last, cut-off word is “friends.”)  It was a bit less garbled when he read it to Bear the other day, but big audiences can make a person nervous.

Thank you all, for keeping us (relatively) sane so far.  Onward to three!
