A Love Note

Caleb has a new love interest.  Her name is Beatrice and she rides the bus with him every day.  She's an older woman, though - 4th grade.  Apparently he tells her, "I love you," and her response is, "You're not my type."  I guess she's into guys her own age and is in love with another 4th grader.  Ahh, young love. Anyway, Caleb came home from school on Friday and said, "Mom, I want to make a card for Beatrice to tell her I love her."  So here it is.

 Awwwww.


 OK, so they battle together (typical Caleb move).


 Then she uses the Force on him, causing him to drop his lightsabers.


Then she cuts his head off!  How romantic!!!

Unfortunately, I had to break the news to Caleb that he can't give the card to Beatrice because if she takes it home her mom might think he's somewhat.... DISTURBED.  He learned that when making a love note, it's pretty important that nobody dies.

Caleb Swimming, Yet Again

Caleb has been doing such an amazing job with his swimming lately.  It never ceases to amaze me how agile he is in the water.  He has become so smooth in his movements and strong with his strokes.  Pretty astounding to watch.



Here he is from another viewpoint.

Check out Caleb's Moves

One day Caleb said, "Hey Mom.  Check out my awesome moves!"
So, of course I grabbed my camera for you to enjoy his awesome moves, as well :)

Halloween

HOLY GUACAMOLE!!!  I can't believe it's been almost 2 months since my last post!  I've got some serious catching up to do.  Here are some pictures from Halloween.  We were a Superhero family... with a twist :)


 I made some pretty sweet pumpkins this year - above is Anakin and below is the Republic symbol (Star Wars, of course).
