Black History month: a really busy month when your husband studies & teaches the Civil Rights Movement

A few weeks ago my beloved gave a talk on our local NPR station.  I just thought I'd post so that I could share.  He's slated to give quite a few "talks" in February.  We're going to have to rethink the whole "one car family" thing for those dates. :)  Love you, babe!

Zora "nursing" Freddie :)

For those of you who followed our Polish adventure, you might remember me posting about the few comments we got about Zora's baby doll, Freddie, who is a darker skinned brother.  (There have not many darker skinned people there since WWII, so even some younger people would say, "I've never seen a black baby doll!") This is a great news story...maybe some things are changing.   

fall family pix...better late than never ;)

this one was B's fav bc the kids were "done" ;)

Zora: no more

L's personal theme:  the peace sign

Here are a few of my favorites.  We rushed our great photographer a little that day...next time I want to devote more time to it.  I think the kids felt the "urgency" to get a pic & behaved accordingly (not so great).  *sigh*  Kids feel our vibes, whether we think they do/want them to.  And still...there are some really fun shots here.  Cheers, Erica!  Thanks for working some magic! ;)
