It's late for Father's day, but I have a proud papa moment. If you've read more than a dozen of my posts you know how proud and happy I am of my little guy, who's five. Yesterday he wanted to send an e-mail to his cousin who's away at summer camp. So I let him write it himself, since he wanted to. We had to sound out a few words and I spelled "swimming" for him. Then he got to the word "across" and started to ask me to spell it. Then he said, "Wait a minute", went to the other room and grabbed his Dr. Seuss Dictionary, found Abigail crossing the street with the word "across", and did it himself. Not only so smart, but resourceful, too."Dance until your feet hurt. Sing until your lungs hurt. Act until you're William Hurt." - Phil Dunphy ("Modern Family"), from Phil's-osophy.

Awesome moment for you, Terry! Thanks for sharing it with us. I got my vocabulary from my father talking in big words when I was in trouble; When I told him I didn't understand, here hand me a dicitonary and told me to come back when I understood what I had done wrong. Because of that, I will never forget what the word "malinger" means. (I was 9 at the time)."I'm a vegan. "
