Is this Nork?

This morning we took the family to Toronto to celebrate the baptism of our new baby cousin Aria. As we were driving over the Burlington skyway, Jessica pointed out the tall buildings and asked, "Daddy, is this Nork?"

"Nork?" we responded

"Yah, Nork, you know...where Aunty Jacqueline lives"

"Oh you mean New York! No hon, this isn't New York...."

How to Play Checkers

"Come play checkers with me mom" Lindsay says to me one day.

"I'm not sure I remember how to play honey...will you teach me?" I say.

"Sure, it's easy!" she says,

"First...you set up the game, second...you decide who goes first, third...you play the game..."

Half Chinese

One evening when we were giving the girls their bath, Jessica's asks me,

"Mom, am I half Chinese?"

"I guess you could say that" I respond

So she points to her right leg and says,

"Is this leg Chinese?"

Dave quickly answers "No - that leg is caucasian...the other one is chinese!"
