Love pats

Ellie and Phillip were sitting at the dinner table last night when Ellie reached over and patted Phillip on the back. Phillip immediately screamed, “Spank! Don’t Spank!” No, no, we assured him, that’s just a “love pat.” Phillip reached over and hit Ellie as hard as he could on the back and said “LOVE PAT!” No, no, Phillip, do it softer. Ellie gave him another love pat, and he screamed, “PAT SOFTER!” This can– and does– go on all night.

  1. Carter’s photography skills were enhanced with a little of my cropping. But they’re not blurry so that’s pretty impressive. Congrats on your new job. We’ll have to exchange Gurdon stories after you’ve been there awhile. It’s a different dynamic there, I’ll be interested to hear your take on things. I think you’ll be great for the students! – Amy
