This morning at the bus stop while a couple of other siblings screamed and fought with each other, Berit and Rowan sat on the sidewalk, each of them absorbed in their books (Berit in Nancy Drew, Rowan in The Magic Treehouse). Griffin sat quietly between them just talking to me. I was so proud (it was my turn - sometimes I'm the parent of the fighting children).

Berit's friend Kiki just called and they are in Webkinz, their online world... with their online pets. You laugh... but online pets don't poo the carpet or scratch up the furniture.
