Last night, while getting the girls ready for bed, they put me through a bit of a spelling bee.
Rowan: How do you spell stove?
Me: S-T-O-V-E
Lilah: How do you spell sign?
Me: S-I-G-N
Rowan: How do you spell laugh?
Me: L-A-U-G-H
Rowan: How do you spell tomorrow?
Me: T-O-M-O-R-R-O-W
Lilah: How do you spell beautiful?
Me: B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
Me: and R-O-W-A-N
Me: and L-I-L-A-H

Rowan: How do you spell I love daddy?

Leaving Saskatoon this afternoon for my long drive home I saw, pulled over at the side of the highway, a broken-down tow truck being towed by a broken-down tow truck.
Say it with me: Eye. Ron. Nick.
