Dutiful sons

James cut his first tooth today, bottom left. Just like the wonderful child he is, he gave me no reason to suspect that a tooth was coming. It was just there this morning.

Among Joel's jobs around the house are taking the recyclables to the recycle bin, putting shoes away, and laundry. He is getting very good at sorting laundry, and I can't wait until he can turn everything right side out and check pockets for mystery items. Last night he was telling Daddy how he helped Mama put the laundry into piles, "whites, darks, neutrals...." We happened to be eating pizza at the time, and his actions earlier in the day inspired Joel to "sort" his pizza. He called our attention to his "green clothes", bell peppers, and his "white clothes", onions, each in their own very neat and tidy pile.
