Gumby
Sarah: Good. Good, good, good! Good!
(After watching an episode of Gumby where the blockheads were trying to capture Pokey the Pony in order to earn a reward of 100 ice cream cones but Gumby was successful at the end and received the ice cream cones.)

Soccer
Sarah and Stephen have started playing soccer in the Itty Bitty division of the Phoenix Parks and Recreation, age group 3-5. They are on the same team, probably one of the few times that this will be possible.
They are definitely my kids. While the soccer games are going on, Sarah is on the field, twirling around and dancing and not paying any attention whatsoever to the ball. Mama reports that Stephen was running around and playing a separate game of tag with another 3-year-old, similarly ignoring the game.
I remember playing soccer in high school gym class and proudly telling a friend when it was over that I had never even touched the ball with my foot or otherwise.
Sometimes I wonder what life would have been like had I been exposed to more sports at an earlier age. Maybe this soccer experience by the kids is giving some insight into that.

Sarah's New Word
... is "ginormous". She says "everyone" uses it, and uses it to describe anything big.
