Ah! The wonderfully foreshadowing sound of the power about to go out. I love a good thunderstorm! I’ve promised my wife a screened in porch for years. This month she gets one!

Code Your Own Game! June 3, 2007 4:25 pm

So Tommy is a World of Warcraft addict. As a programmer, I think my children should know a little bit about coding. I have decided to install Visual Studio Express on their computers and letting them earn computer time by learning about programming. Write Hello World, earn some Youtube time. Write your own game and then play WoW. Actually, I don’t want to set this up as a drudgery so a carrot/reward system won’t work. I am hoping they just find it cool.

Evan, pointing to my coffee: "Is that hot?"

His vocabulary and sentence structures have exploded in the past couple of weeks!
