Sam has developed a fascinating new concept. Last week, when he would ask us to tell him a story, and for whatever reason – say, we were in the shower, or perhaps, juggling lit torches – we would defer the storytelling until later because we didn’t have a story to tell him right then, he began saying that he was “putting a story in our head from mine.” Yesterday, he was in the car with Amy and our friend Leslie. He asked Leslie to tell him a story, but since she was pooped, she declined. So Sam said he was going to take the story he put in her head from his and put it in mommys head. Quite the concept of where stories come from, eh?

Well, it happened again. Unlike last time the sparking power lines outside our house didn’t result in any fried electronics – that I’ve spotted yet. But in a similar fashion, I was sitting at my desk and heard a popping noise outside, looked and saw our powerlines across the street jumping around. There’s no wind tonight, so I couldn’t figure it out – suspected a car might have hit a pole down the street or something. Well, it was a large oak branch that fell down the street, and our lines did an impromptu fireworks show for us. Thankfully, nothing was hit other than the power lines, and we kept power throughout.
