Indy (and Clara)

Forget spelling bees. Berkeley kids compete with entire books

Clara and her friends won the 6th Grade "Battle of the Books" and was featured in this great photo in Berkeleyside, our local online newspaper....

Molly, on the bus

Got something stuck between your teeth there

Happy 14th, Molly!

Molly is now a fully celebrated 14 year old! We had a birthday-eve family dinner at home (with takeout from Spoon, her favorite Korean place, and a pile of donuts for a cake), a bit more celebration on the actual day, and her friend party last night (hanging out with her friends at the Oakland Museum of California's Friday Nights event).

Here she is on the eve of her birthday modeling the sweater that I finished just in time! (The sweater was her request: please something with lots of cables!). What a kid!

It doesn't look particularly comfortable to me, but then again, I'm not a cat.
