This is our John. There are many Johns out there, but this one is ours. Our daily life with John, celebrating the insignificant details that make up life.

Lion on the loose 2!

Picking up acorns


chasing a squirl
chasing geese




I had been looking forward to going to Fairyland for some years now, before John was born, even. I have dim memories of the place, or photos of me at the place. I had the key somewhere for a long time. There are story boxes by the exhibits that read out the nursery rhymes if you insert a special key. We bought a new one for John. I think he liked using it. We'll have to go back there again so he can spend more time looking at things.
The day was almost tragic, as we came to believe the day after that we lost our video camera there. Charles was very distraught the following Monday over the loss, and stayed home so we could call the park and find out the fate of our beloved camera (and beloved footage!). Unfortunately, the park is closed Mondays and Tuesdays. On the off chance, I called our church to see if we left it there when we went to the teen haunted house there after coming back from Fairyland. On Tuesday, we got an email from the intern Pastor Josh. He found it in the community room! hooray!

I remember Charles being bitten by a goose when we were little. It looks like John has inherited the Challey family penchant for chasing geese. Let's hope he hasn't inherited the tasty Challey flavor that makes geese like to chomp us!
