Gathering Words

Since I was a baby I've been gathering words,
   looking around for a good word to use
   on a winter's night.
Like... who built this house?
Who made this bookshelf?
Who made all these books?
Who made Daddy?
Who made you?
Who made me?
Who made the air?
The wind made the air.
The air made the children.
You made you.
I made me.

On "The Wizard of Oz"

He was a bad wizard, but a good man.

All the things?

Whenever Ian sits on the toilet, he calls out to the nearest grown up with this sort of Zen koan: What are all the things that are green?

Whoa.

It suddenly becomes hard to think of more than four or five.

Ian made an awesome tool belt today. He couldn't have been in his room for more than 5 minutes before he walked proudly down the hall to show off his creation.

lovely lips

Why do you lick your lips before you give a kiss?

So that I can bring the love from my heart, up to my lips, and then give it to you.

on looking at a "Presidents of the United States of America" placemat

Why is there only he's, and no she's?

Did you know?

Did you know that Mr. Rogers has a kind of decoration in his house that's like a traffic light? Maybe someday he'll talk about it.

All of these are pictures I took. I took all of these pictures because I wanted to look at them more closer up on the computer.

many Ians

Guess what? There are four Ians! Ian just now at the program, who's not in my school; Ian in my school; me, Ian; and there's a big Ian who was in the wedding.

Wow, that's a lot of Ians.

That's almost too many Ians.
