Sam!

Samantha was born 2 weeks ago, and Lisette and I had a chance to meet her last night. Sam doesn’t do too much yet (she mostly eats and sleeps), but it is impossible to miss the joy she brings her adoring parents. Sam will certainly be spoiled with love and attention, and she already has her daddy wrapped around her tiny finger.

In visiting her we got to see her nursery, her cute baby clothes and the many accessories that accompany newborns. Little Sam has cribs and playpens and swingy chairs – all the latest in infant entertainment. She also has a growing CD collection, and after a nice dinner out at Hamano Sushi we listened to one of the recent additions to her library: the Best of Schoolhouse Rock.

Many of the classics are on the CD: Conjunction Junction, Unpack Your Adjectives, I’m Just a Bill and, of course, Interjections! However, for the ultimate in cartoon education, I recommend the Schoolhouse Rock! (Special 30th Anniversary Edition) DVD. It has video for all 46 songs and special features.
