My Clock is Yellow!

Today was a milestone. For months we have noticed that Judah is awful with colors. We don't think he's color blind, just really not interested in getting them down. Several months ago we got Judah a clock with colors that shows when he can get out of bed in the morning. Blue means stay in bed, yellow means get up. For months, every morning he comes into our room saying, "My clock is blue, I can get up!". It's actually yellow, so for months we've been saying, "You mean your clock is yellow?". Well, today Judah comes in and says, "My clock is yellow, I can get up!". Funny how it is exciting and sad all at once for him to have finally learned that.

Giant Leek

Last year we left a leek to winter over in the garden. We never got out to use it and when we finally started paying attention to the yard again noticed that it had flowered. It's hugely tall! Who knew leeks flowered, we didn't.
