Family Words

We've spent a whirlwind few days driving out to visit Offspring the First and Offspring the Second for Thanksgiving.  They look well, and were so very much themselves - witty, ever so slightly sarcastic, bright and thoughtful and... just so grown-up.  It's a wonder, to have nearly-adult Offspring. They are such marvelous people. It's a pleasure to sit in their company.

One of the best moments was when we broke out the Bananagrams. Herself played against Beloved Husband, and then against Offspring the First, and then all of the Offspring played against one another. The very best part was watching the Offspring - it brought great joy to Herself's heart to see them pull all sorts of lengthy, obscure, and unusual words out of their letters.  Such a tremendous delight to see how all of the Offspring use language so well.

Ah, words, How we love them.

Herself's words.
