Eli turned 6 yesterday. He is still really loving kindergarten, I think mostly because he simply loves to learn. If he is interested in something he will absolutely not rest until he understands it thoroughly. How many other 6-year olds do you know that know Otto Lilienthal was killed when his glider crashed? Didn't catch that on the news? Might be because it happened in 1896! How did Eli know? He made Chris read him a book from the library on the history of the Wright brothers flight every night for a week. His birthday cake last night was adorned with a little model plane that Eli recognized immediately as that of the Wright Brothers.
Time Flies....pun intended.
Here Are A Couple of Brothers...
Will they ever be able to work together to create important inventions?
I doubt it, unless they both have their own hammer.
Eli, 3 Days Old
Eli, 6 Years
(The Crown was from school - they announced his birthday over the intercom. Exciting!)
My days of holding Eli are over! Do you see how tall he is?!
