1. Good job, Matthew! Tell Daddy how it is.

   My son will be three in Sept. Smarts uttered in little-boy voices slay me every time.

   Anwyn, do you mean ‘little boys’ with names such as John Edwards, Howard Dean, Ted Kennedy, etc. ?

   Ha, ha, ha.

3. Sounds like both Matthew and my son Christopher are smarter than those guys. Besides, they don’t have the cute voices. And when my son screams, he has a good reason.

4. The best part is that Matthew carefully enunciates his words, so that it sounds like: “But – the – wind – is – not – gone . . .”

6. My children call that a “Dadism”. I’m notorious for mixing metaphors. Its gone “with” the wind. Your son can test for the accuracy of this by holding up a $100 bill on a very windy day.
